Suggest Treatment For Fever And Rashes On Kid

I have a three yer old boy. His temp is 101 and he has developed a rash on most of his body. Looks like heat rash. He is tired and quiet until he gets Advil. Then his energy is more than fine. He is eating only after the medication - too tired to do so otherwise. The temp has been about 24 hours. The rash began about 4 hours ago.

Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
I'm sorry to hear that about your son.
Rashes can be due to a lot factors like allergy, infection, heat and some disease. Fever and a rash can be caused be several viral infections. It depends on the characteristics, the location, what part of the body did it appear first, how it spread to be able to give us a clue on what specific virus caused it . Is it itchy? painful? It is best to consult your doctor so he can give you the correct diagnosis and proper management.
Hope he feels better soon.
