Hi, i have been having a fever for 3 days now with my temperature at around 38 to 39 degrees. I have been feeling hot and cold every now and then and have body aches but my appetite is normal and i can eat quite abit. Alot of red rashes have been appearing on my body, legs and hands.

Hello there. I have read through your question and would like to tell you that rashes are common in viral fever. If you are immunised for measles then there is nothing much to be done. If there is intense itching you can take benadryl. The rash will subside once you recover from the viral fever. I hope that answers your question . If you have any further questions please feel free to write.
