Doctor can examine: Rashes can be hard to figure out without looking at them. Blisters can be viral (eg: chicken pox), bacterial, or contact dermatitis. A rash can also happen sometimes if a person's body is reacting to a viral or bacterial infection (sort of like an allergic reaction). Strep throat bacteria can make a toxin that causes reddish rashes. Allergy to certain foods or other substances can create rashes.

The cough, cold symptoms and fever are prolonged and indicate another condition should be considered. A COVID 19 infection may result in prolonged symptoms and also the complication of MIS C. The rash, fever and respiratory symptoms should be evaluated and a cardiac condition ruled out. The inflammatory markers sent by your pediatrician will help to establish whether she has MIS C.
