Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I have read your query in detail. I understand your concern.
Fever with rash requires proper evaluation.
It can be chicken pox, Measles, or even can be due to low platelet count.

I would suggest you to send us the photograph of the rash.

Also get her:
1. Hemogram
2. KFT
3. LFT
4. Malaria Antigen

This is my best opinion for you based on available details. If you have any further query please.
Stay Healthy.
