My 4year old son had a sickness bug 4 days ago and this morning woke up with an itchy rash on his torso I've given him antihistamines to help with the itch. I've done the glass test and it disapered under it, he did have a mild temp of 37.3. Could this be a post viral rash?
Yes it could be viral but it might also signal a streptococcal infection so it would be a good idea to have a doctor see him
