What to do if a child has a strep infection with a generalized rash

Children with streptococcal infection with red rash all over the body are considered to be scarlet fever, which should be handled by general treatment and medication.
1. General treatment: For children with scarlet fever, adequate rest should be ensured, and fluid intake should be supplemented. Drinking more water can promote recovery.
2. Medication: Sensitive antibiotics should be used for streptococcal infection, and penicillin is preferred. If the child is allergic to penicillin, erythromycin, azithromycin and other drugs can be used. The medication should be used in sufficient quantity and duration, and the specific medication should be prescribed by the doctor. If itchy skin and other symptoms appear, you can use topical glycerine lotion and other drugs to reduce itching.
Children suffering from scarlet fever should consult a doctor in time and standardize the treatment under the doctor’s guidance.
