HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that this could be viral fever and this some time causes such rash particularly in pediatric age group and this comes around on its own without the medicine, no need to worry about this, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
