roseola

a case of roseola virus ...

fever up to 103.5
mild diarrhea
puffy eyes
irritable and extremely tired
loss of appetite
rash appears after fever ends
it strikes baby 6 months to kids 3 years of age

treatment of roseola ...

let it run it course
lot of fluid intake
lot of rest
to reduce fever ... infant tylenol or acetaminophen
or a lukewarm sponge bath
