hi, my son is suffering from hives and fever for 4 days now.  he was prescribed prednisone and today he had his 3rd dose but soon after taking it his symptoms worsen for about a couple of hours, now he is quite better but still has hives and slight fever. please advise
Hellos you mentioned that your son is having FEVER and hives for 4 days. He was advised prednisolone (steroid) and once, he took, he develops hives (rashes) and also fever. Since, still fever and hives present, so I recommend, stop prednisolone because it may mask the clinical features of fever (what is the main reason of fever, is not known). As far as concerned about rashes and hives, may be due to allergy so montelukast+fexofenadine will provide instant relief. For fever get in blood for CBC, malarial parasites. I recommend you consult a physician (2nd one) and get his opinion. Good luck.
