Will it go away on it's own??!! Please let me know doctors thank you.

It is less likely that diaper rash causes fever.Never the less if the fever episodes persists then please visit a Paediatrician.

If rash is infected then it can cause fever, or fever might be viral / seasonal, fever is low grade, if high grade fever present then go for physical consultation , use coconut oil or keep diaper free in day
