What Causes My Daughter's Redness Of Lips After A Bout Of Fever?

I just noticed today after school my daughters lips are a bright shade of red...almost like she has lipstick on. Over Christmas she ran a high fever for 4 days, had white patches in her throat and when the fever broke, had a bumpy red rash on her chest and then it all just went away about 3 days after Christmas. What could this be and do I need to be worried? Thanks

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your daughter have symptoms of redness of lips after a bout of fever which seems to be due to viral or bacterial infection. I would suggest you to visit general physician once and get it examined. You should get blood tests done and start treatment after proper diagnosis. Do tepid sponging as well to lower down fever. Apply petroleum jelly on lips. Take diet rich in fresh juices and fruits. Drink plenty of water and fluids. You should take anti-allergic medication along with proper course of antibiotic along with Ibuprofen. Do tepid sponging as well to lower down fever. Take multivitamins to booster immunity of body.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
