Make sure child is taking feeds, food, water, passing urine as before

Usually fever along with rashes is viral origin only. And subside after 5-7 days. Just give symptomatic treatment like paracetamol and no specific treatment needed for rashes
Next Steps
if fever doesn't subside consult near by pediatrician
