Could a fever cause my 5yo to get small hives breakout only on his face?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Fever is the result of chemicals which are a result of immune stimulation. Hives can be a signal of this. In fact, viral infections are the most common cause off hives in children.

Not the fever: The rash is caused by the underlying illness, not by the fever.
