Hello dear
Thanks for your query at hcm.
I understand you r concern
High grade fever with rash o on whole body might be from pox or measles or other exanthamatous diseases.
My recommendation would get the child physically examined by pediatrician to determine the cause and manage accordingly.
Till you visit doctor you can continue paracetamol and cold sponging to control fever .
Regards .
