A. o will advice to give antibiotics as advice, such body rashes are common in viral fever, apply calamine lotion and it will cure itself in few days, but if the rashes are severe, having itching, it's preferable to visit your doctor, for further evaluation and exact treatment or management.

A. Yes You definitely should visit the paediatrician as of now if you don’t have anything available at home you can go ahead with using coconut oil otherwise calamine lotion is the best thing to apply as of now also the medicine has reacted which is why your child has got so many Russian so don’t give that medicine again child is never going to accept
