How long does a strep rash last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Different rashes: The "sandpaper" rash on the trunk lasts about 7-10 days and then peels like a mild sunburn. You can have impetigo, which can look like blisters or honey colored scabs. You can get cellulitis which is deep red. Strep can mimic many other rashes.

Both sons are on amoxicillin (5 months for an ear infection & 2.5 years for strep). My husband and I are both allergic to amoxicillin (rashes). We told the doctor this but they were still prescribed. Would severe reaction happen immediately? Nervous?
