Fevers will usually go away on their own within a few days. If your child has a fever above 38.5 degrees C, contact your pediatrician for appropriate treatment (1) (2).

1. The cause of a fever rash is common in children

Young children, especially those from 1-> 3 years old, who are in crawling or walking age, often have a fever due to many reasons such as:

• Children are exposed to and infected with viruses and bacteria from other children in the class, especially in kindergartens and preschools.

Children infected with bacteria and viruses caused by children often put toys in their mouths or nibble on objects around them.

Some babies will get a rash after the fever is gone. The cause is usually from:

Rubella

• HFMD

• fifth disease

1.1. Rubella

Rubella is a common disease caused by a group A virus. The virus can also cause strep throat and skin infections like impetigo. Rubella is common in children under 2 years old.
