Child had a rash after bath , low fever ?

Question

looked like hives she wan not outside or in the sun used her regular soap.

Answer 1

It probably was something else and if she took a hot bath (hot shower/bath makes our bodies let more histamine which can cause hives/rashes) it could have irritated her condition. Check to see if she using different clothing or underwear then normal since it is located on areas she'd would be wearing clothes. If it continues to happen you might need to speak to your Doc.

By the way, she does not have a fever. 98.6 is normal core body temperature (when checked in the bottom), so she way only 1 degree off which is fine if even if taken "down there" and more so anywhere else.

Answer 2

Fever is the body's normal and healthy reaction to infection and other illnesses, both minor and serious. Fevers help the body fight infection. Fever is a symptom, not a disease. In most cases, fever means your child has a minor illness. Often you must look at your child's other symptoms to determine how serious the illness is. Although it may be scary when your child's temperature goes up, fever is not harmful.
