Hello,
Fever with rash is most likely due to viral fever. It is a self limiting condition.
I would advice my patient to take rest and drink plenty of water to control fever and dehydration.
Paracetamol may be take for fever.
Secondly blood sugar needs to be checked and the dose of the drugs and insulin needs to be adjustedaccordingly.
