Child has a cold, fever, and small red itchy spots, how to use medicine

Patient's question:

Little girl has a cold and fever with small red spots on her hands, itchy. Please help me see a doctor, thank you!

Doctor's answer:

In the case of a child, the first consideration should be infectious urticaria or measles. Additionally, drug-induced allergic rash cannot be ruled out. It is recommended to take the child to the pediatric or dermatology department of a hospital for a follow-up examination. Through a detailed and thorough examination, the cause should be identified, and symptomatic treatment should be administered.
For infectious urticaria and measles, it is necessary to focus on controlling the transmission while taking antihistamines and anti-allergic medications to reduce swelling and relieve pain. In the case of drug allergies, the medication should be changed, and anti-allergic treatment should be coordinated accordingly.
