A member asked:

Can fifth disease in children cause bad diarrhea? what are some home remedies i can use for her rash? when will it be gone? child is 2.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No diarrhea: I cannot recall ever seeing a case where diarrhea was involved.They can occur simultaneously for a number of reasons but it is not a listed symptom. I would ignore the rash.It comes up from the inside so outside creams or treatments don't help. The rash may flare with a warm bath or play outside and can persist for weeks.They are not contagious when the rash appears.
