A member asked:

9month old has had a rash all over his body for 2days. he has had a temperature today that isn't going down with calpol. should i be worried ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May need eval: Rash in 9 month old with fever can be a sign of infection (viral or bacterial). Take your child to his pediatrician to evaluate him and possibly do some blood tests.
