What Is Roseola?
10. Treatment
No treatment is provided for roseola. That is asides from treatment that can help to soothe the patient’s symptoms. The disease will usually be cleared up by the immune system within a week or so. It should be noted that aspirin should not be used for sick children because it can result in some very dangerous reactions.
Patients with roseola are generally requested to rest and take on plenty of liquids, and they should be monitored for signs of dehydration. If the symptoms do appear to be worsening and/or getting worse, then you should seek medical advice as soon as you are able. The patient should also be monitored in case their fever reaches too high, especially in vulnerable people.
