Infant Down With Fever, Has Rash All Over The Body, Is Teething And Constantly Rubbing His Face. What Should Be Done?

Hi my baby is 7 months old & his had a fever for the last couple of day. I noticed today that he broke out on a rash all over his body. I took Mereki to the doctors today to get some professional advice. I was advised that Mereki doesn,t need anything for the rash. At the moment i,m having problems trying to settle Mereki. Mereki is also teething & constantly rubbing his face. I don,t know what to do.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Do not worry,your son is having fever with some exanthematous rash which is usually viral and takes few days to settle.I advise you to give him paracetamol for fever and apply calamine over rashes 2 to 3 times a day.Give him plenty of fluids,
Your son will be fine.
God bless
