<s>[INST] my 3 year old has a rash covering her torso, front and back, also her neck. It didn t get to her back until yesterday and this morning it has went further down her back. I have been putting hydrocortazone on to relief the itch. she has had a minor cold the past week but is no longer sick now. But she is with a rash. what could it be? [/INST] Hi, It is probably a viral infection that need to be seen by a pediatrician, but at the mean time, you can continue on cortisone. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Salah Saad Shoman, Internal Medicine Specialist </s>
