Hi, my 3-year-old daughter has rash on her body, and a mild fever. I am confused, because I don’t know what is causing these symptoms. Should I call the doctor?
Yes, of course you should call a doctor! My son’s chicken pox started with the same symptoms. I was also confused, but I called a doctor immediately. Soon after that my son got some other symptoms, such as sore throat and headache. Maybe your daughter had the same condition. If she does, be careful if you have other children who didn’t get a chickenpoxvaccine. This disease can easily be transmitted through the air to anyone nearby. Call a doctor immediately, because it could also be some allergic reaction. It could be dangerous if it’s not treated immediately. I remember when I was a kid, they gave me aspirin which caused rash all over my body and the blockage of my throat.
