Difference between Kawasaki disease and infantile exanthem

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Could you please tell me the difference between Kawasaki disease and infantile exanthema?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the pediatric emergency department generally causes patients to experience seizures, nausea and vomiting, mild cough, and low fever. Patients need to be treated with antipyretics and antiviral drugs. Although Kawasaki disease can cause patients to have low fever, it can also cause symptoms such as conjunctival congestion. Patients are mainly treated with immunotherapy.
