Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you child have symptoms of high fever,sore throat and rashes on face and neck which is because of streptococcal infection leading to strep throat. It is leading to granular pharyngitis. It could be due to poor and compromised immunity of body. Need not to worry. I would advise you to take few preventive measures such as do warm saline gargles on daily basis 3- 4 times a day. You should do tepid sponging to avoid high fever. Avoid exposure to sunlight. Take proper antibiotic course such as Levofloxacin for 5-7 days. Take anti-inflammatory drugs such as Sinarest as well. Visit pediatrician once and get complete examination done. Go for blood tests and sputum test as well. You should drink plenty of fluids. Take supplements rich in vitamin B12 to booster immunity. Maintain proper oral hygiene.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
