5 yr old female, positive strep test, has a chest rash and complains of itchiness...suggestions to get her to stop scratching?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Strep test: It appears that your child has scarlet fever. I hope she is under treatment. Have her soak in colloid oatmeal baths to reduce the itching.
