Rash?

R

Waiting to hear back from her dr. She doesn't have a fever and is playing normally. Not scratching herself or anything.

Anyone know what it could be?

She was like this when I picked her up yesterday at 4pm from my moms house.

Did she have her MMR & Chicken pox vaccines within the last couple weeks?

No, she goes Thursday for her 1 year appointment. Her rash is gone and she has 5 days left on her antibiotic. Dr. Said it was either roseola or scarlet fever 🤷‍♀️

Was she recently sick? We had something similar but not quite as bad that the doc said can come as aftermath of viruses

Dr says looks like either roseola or scarlet. He said hes not sure because she hasnt been running much of a fever and is still eating and drinking normally. He prescribed her amoxicillin 3x a day for 10 days.

Yeah as long as there's no fever I don't see the rush, as long as it's not getting worse or uncomfortable . Our ped doesn't have us bring her in unless it's worsening or severe. If it's what I suggested it should go away in a couple days

Thanks! Still haven't heard from dr. The nurse was rude to me trying to insinuate that I didnt care enough about my duagther to bring her in today. I can take her tomorrow first thing but I dont have a vehicle right now. My husband has mine because his is in the shop and hes at work.

My little one had almost the exact same thing a few weeks ago. Took him to the doctor and she said it’s likely a virus. He never ran a fever or had any other symptoms. It went away on its own a few days later.

Thank you! I looked online and freaked myself out. Meningitis. Scarlet fever. Measles. I took her temp in her ear and it keeps fluctuating between 98.1 and 99.1 I think now I'm just paranoid from Google and the drs nurse who tried to insinuate that I didnt care about my daughter

Oh god 😳 no advice but hopefully it's something small like an allergic reaction to new laundry power? Have you tried the glass over skin, if it disappears it's fine if not it could be meningitis and take LO to emergency room. Looks uncomfortable ☹

Yeah if you roll a clear glass over skin and spots dont disappear it can be meningitis, if it disappears then it's not meningitis x
