The association of fever with illness has been known for years. A febrile child may have rash, and physicians need to know when this symptom combination is a benign versus a pathologic clinical presentation. In other terms, potential etiologies are either infectious or non-infectious. With scrupulous, methodical history taking and careful, serial physical examination, the treating physician will find hints to assess and solidify an appropriate diagnosis, and chose an appropriate treatment. |
