A member asked:
My granddaughter (16 mo) diagnosed roseola or fifths. i have an itchy rash on arms and neck and had fever blister. any connection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No connection: Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is the most frequent cause of roseola.●Roseola classically begins with three to five days of fever that may exceed 40ºC (104ºF); as the fever abates, a blanching macular or maculopapular rash develops, starting on the neck and trunk and spreads to the face and extremities. It is self limited and benign. I do not believe your symptoms are caused by Roseola!
