The rash of scarlet fever is typically a fine, "sandpaper-like" rash that consists of small, red bumps. Scarlet fever most commonly occurs in children between the ages of 2 and 10. It is spread from direct contact with a child who is infected, usually through secretions from the mouth or nose.

The incubation period is short, generally 1-2 days. Illness typically begins with a fever and sore throat. It may be accompanied by chills, vomiting, abdominal pain, and malaise. The streptococcal bacteria produces a toxin that causes a rash that appears one to two days after the onset of illness. The rash usually first appears on the neck and chest, then spreads over the body. It is described as "sandpapery" in quality. The texture of the rash is more important than the appearance in confirming the diagnosis. The rash can last for over a week. As the rash fades, peeling (desquamation) may occur around the finger tips, toes, and groin area. The main risk factors is infection with the bacteria that causes strep throat . A history of strep throat or scarlet fever in the community, neighborhood, or school may increase the risk of infection.

So I paid my fare and walked down front And found an empty chair As I settled in young scarlet took the ribbons from her hair The moves her body made while the music played Were the likes I´ve never seen And she became the envy of my dreams. One by one her teasing movements Brought the crowd out of their seats And all at once young scarlet Danced straight up in front of me From the moment that her eyes found mine I´ve never been the same Scarlet locked another heart upon her chain.

87. Scarlet Fever scarlet fever. scarlet fever s onset is sudden (typically two to seven days afterexposure), beginning with a sore throat, shivering, and a headache. http://www.english.upenn.edu/~jlynch/Frank/V1notes/scarlet.html

scarlet fever A highly contagious disease, usually encountered in childhood, caused by hemolytic streptococus. It is spread through the air or through contaminated food, and was virtually untreatable before the development of antibiotics, although penicillin and gamma globulin have made it much less common in the twentieth century. Scarlet fever's onset is sudden (typically two to seven days after exposure), beginning with a sore throat, shivering, and a headache. It develops on the second day into a rash behind the ears, which spreads to the arms and legs. Thomas Sydenham, a physician of the late seventeenth century, describes its symptoms thus: "The skin is marked with small, red spots, more frequent, more diffuse, and more red than in measles. These last two or three days. They then disappear, leaving the skin covered with brawny squamulae [scales], as if powdered with meal." Scarlet fever leaves the glands swollen and often sensitive; in some cases, the squamulae on parts of the patient's skin peel off. The greatest threats arise from complications. Sinus infections, abcesses of the ear, and mastoiditis are common. In a few cases, scarlet fever leads to arthritis, rheumatic fever, or kidney failure.

But nowadays, it's treated with antibiotics and presents few complications. It's the same thing as strep throat, only with the rash. As long as your DD takes all the antibiotics she should feel better within 12-24 hours, although the rash may start peeling and get a little itchy within a few days. Pam RE: Scarlet Fever Posted by: Mommabear My Page ) on Mon, Jan 28, 02 at 11:42 Isn't scarlet fever bacterial? I thought is was caused by the same bacteria that causes strep throat. Are you sure he said the VIRUS was in her bloodstream? If so, does she have a virus AS WELL as scarlet fever? My son had scarlet fever last year. Once he was on the antibiotics he felt better almost immediately. He was not throwing up while he had it although sometimes that is caused by the onset of fever, not necessarily the infection. The infection didn't last long.
