thank you for using healthcare magic.
Fever and rashes often indicate a viral illness. Sometimes it can also be just an allergic reaction to his current sickness. It would be best to see a doctor so the rashescan be examined. Also, a blood test like CBC can be done in order to differentiate other causes of fever and rashes.
