Rash vs cold and fever
Differences in symptoms

The best way to treat the symptoms is to use ice and other physical methods to relieve the symptoms.
Rash: there is no specific medicine or special treatment for this disease. Cold medicine or antibiotics do not work. Because rash is a viral infection, antibiotics have no specific effect on the virus, and the use of antibiotics may cause many other problems. The main treatment is to strengthen nursing. For example, let the baby have a good rest, pay attention to the indoor ventilation, the quilt should not be too thick; regularly wipe the sweat on the baby's body to avoid catching cold; feed more boiled water or juice to the baby to facilitate sweating and urination, and promote the discharge of poisons; if the baby's temperature exceeds 38.5 ℃, use antipyretics (medication only to alleviate symptoms, rather than treatment), or physical cooling to prevent it from leaving Now febrile convulsion.
