Can Fever And Rashes All Over Body Be A Sign Of Measles?

My 52 yr old son is running lil bit of temp & is broke out in a rash pretty much over most of his body. Reminds me of the 3-day measles he had as a child....... Not sure what it might be or what to do. He had the German measles, 3-day measles, mumps & chicken pox as a child.

Hello and welcome
Looking at history this could be herpes zoster or an systemic inflammatory reaction
please upload a photograph of the rashes to establish a probable diagnosis

in my opinion you should your GP for clinical examination and lab investigation
He may require a course of antibiotics under supervision of your doctor
