What Causes Skin Rash In A Child?
Hello my three year old daughter developed a rash on her upper arms 5 days ago which has since spread all over her body including her buttocks. However just tonight I noticed her right ear also had this rash but not the left. She has not had a fever and other than a cough acts fine. Could this be measles?

Hi Dear
welcome to the HCM,
This does not seems to be measles. Measles is a serious ailment causes lot of fever cough and congestion.
This could be some mild viral rash without any other symptoms.
Hope such mild viral rashes do subside of its own with out any much treatment.
Hope the query is answered.
thanks
