Tonsilits and itchy skin rash?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not sure of question: Common, mild virus infections can do both. They get better without treatment in a few days. Strep infection of tonsils can have really bad complications SCARLET FEVER but: pretty much only in children pretty much always with fever and sickness and big sore ugly tonsils Cannot say in your particular case.

Scarlet Fever?: Fever? Tonsillitis can be from Group A Strep bacteria, which if severe can cause a rash (usually not itchy though), in association with high fever and must be treated with antibiotics. See a doctor as soon as possible. IF NO FEVER, you may have Fifth Disease -- a benign rash from a virus which also causes your tonsillitis. If you are on medications, could be allergy. Lots of causes, see Dr.
