    10 yr old virus?
    My son was vomiting with a fever 100.5 and complaints about his throat. I took him to urgent care Thursday night. No strep but a virus and prescribed him promethazine 25mg. He took 1 Thursday night and woke up fine. Yesterday he has a rash on his eyes (swollen) and neck down to his stomach even inside belly button. Is this still a virus or should I take him to dr. Again
