Patient's question:
Question about breastfeeding with roseola. The child has been six or seven months old and still breastfeeding. However, they recently contracted a sudden illness with a rash. But they still need to be breastfed daily. I don’t know if breastfeeding will affect this illness. Does breastfeeding have an impact on roseola?Doctor's answer:
Acute rash in children does not affect breastfeeding. Breastfeeding should be allowed for the infant. The infant can eat and recover quickly. Generally, do not take the infant to crowded public places or poorly ventilated areas to avoid infection. The infant's living environment should have windows frequently opened to change the air and maintain freshness. The infant should be given appropriate amounts of water, and adults should not kiss the baby. Hands should be washed.
