What Causes Skin Rash In A Child Suffering From Throat Infection?
I do child care i n my home. I have a nine year old girl that was diagnosed with strep throat last thursday. I started watching her on Monday this week. She is on antibiotics. I don t know which one. We went swimming at the city pool yesterday. Today she has a rash all over. It was apparent at 7 am this morning and has gotten worse through the day. I am wondering if she is reacting to her medicine or just the chlorine from the pool yesterday. I am sorry I didn t know this was a cost service. Thanks anyways.

HI
Well come to HCM
The rash could be due to viral fever and also may be due to antibiotic and some time this may not need any treatment, this comes around once the course of disease is over and antibiotic stopped, if the rash is sever then this can be treated with Levocetrizine Tab 2.5 mg three times in day, hope this information helps.
