Patient's question:
5 days ago had a fever. Past treatment and effectiveness: The fever subsided, but on the 4th day, red rashes appeared on the child's abdomen, which disappeared by the 5th day. Currently, the child has frequent diarrhea and constant crying. What kind of help is desired: Asking if there will be any long-term effects.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the recurring rash is primarily considered to be caused by an infectious agent, with a focus on ruling out viral infection. Follow-up examination is necessary to confirm the diagnosis. In such cases, it may be advisable to conduct a complete blood count and a routine stool examination. If viral infection is confirmed, antiviral treatment can be considered. For diarrhea, medications such as Montmorillonite, Seabuckthorn Dry Emulsion, and Lactic Acid Bacteria Tablets can be used for stabilization. Azithromycin is generally recommended for infants and adults over 6 months of age. In your case, if the child is of a larger size and weight, there will be no special side effects or sequelae, and it is best to switch to other medications for safety considerations.
