Fever itching
My son had measles kind of rashes along with fever last month. Fever and rashes gone within 3 days but exactly after a week he started itching. He itches head, hand and leg. He is having few boil kind of rash on hand and legs at present . I noticed lymph node little prominent all of sudden on his neck.I took him to paediatrician. Doctor adviced banocide syrup and montair lc for a week. His itching reduced little bit but not completely. I have appointment next week. Before that I googled and got scared. It shows lymphoma. If there is itchy skin for no reason with lymph node swelling. Earlier i took blood test which shows reactive lymphocytes and counts were normal. I'm totally scared. Pls help me out. Is it possible for itchy skin after fever?can child get measles after MMR vaccine? What blood test indicates?

First of all, dont worry about it. Be relax! Itching is common after after fever with rash. There are very few chances that child may get infection even after proper vaccination. Child's immunity will decide it. Blood test is suggestive of viral infection nothing more than that. If itching persist follow up is required with pediatrician.
