Are Red Itchy Blotches On Stomach, Butt And Foot With Sore Neck And Fever Signs Of Allergy ?
My 4 year old got sick two times last night and today she has a temp of 99.3 and sore neck to the touch and red itchy blotches on butt, stomach, and foot. I am thinking this is some kind of food allergy but not sure??? She had fish for lunch yesterday and she has been eating strawberries for breakfast every morning could one of these be the guilty party??

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Allergic reactions would not normally be associated with an increase in temperature and soreness of the muscles or joints.
It is more likely a viral illness though it is possible to have both at the same time.
A viral infection would cause muscle/joint tenderness, fever, vomiting.
It would be best to take her to her doctor for assessment.
I hope this helps
