Summaries for Scarlet Fever

About this section
PubMed Health : 63 About scarlet fever: Scarlet fever is a bacterial infection that mainly affects children. It usually causes a typical rash, fever and a sore throat.Thanks to antibiotics like penicillin, scarlet fever is easy to treat. Antibiotics can also reduce the time during which children with scarlet fever are contagious. The infection is spread through bacteria-containing droplets and close physical contact.Before the development of penicillin, scarlet fever sometimes led to serious complications. But it’s usually quite a mild illness nowadays. It’s still important to try to stop it from spreading to other people, though. One thing you can do is wash your hands often.Unlike with many other childhood diseases, having had scarlet fever in the past doesn't make you immune to future scarlet fever infections. So people can have it more than once in their lives.

MalaCards based summary : Scarlet Fever, also known as scarlatina, is related to impetigo and staphylococcal scarlet fever. An important gene associated with Scarlet Fever is EDNRA (Endothelin Receptor Type A), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Endothelins and Endothelin Pathways. The drugs Amoxicillin and Anti-Bacterial Agents have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include eye, tongue and lymph node, and related phenotype is muscle.

Disease Ontology : 12 An upper respiratory tract disease described as an acute contagious disease caused by Group A bacteria of the genus Streptococcus (especially various strains of S. pyogenes) and characterized by inflammation of the nose, throat, and mouth, generalized toxemia, and a red rash.

CDC : 3 Group A Streptococcus (group A strep) is a bacterium that can cause many different infections, including strep throat, scarlet fever, impetigo, and others. The bacteria live in the nose and throat. When someone who is infected coughs or sneezes, the bacteria travel in small droplets of water called respiratory droplets. One of the ways you can get sick is if you breathe in those droplets or if you touch something that has the droplets on it and then touch your mouth, nose, or eyes.

About this section

PubMedHealth treatment related to Scarlet Fever: 63

Scarlet fever is treated with antibiotics – also because that means you will no longer be contagious after 24 hours. They make the symptoms go away a little faster and help to prevent possible complications too. The most commonly used antibiotics for the treatment of scarlet fever are penicillin-based. They are taken two or three times a day for ten days. If someone is allergic to penicillin or it is not well-tolerated, they can take other antibiotics. The possible side effects include nausea, diarrhea and a rash. It’s important to keep taking all the antibiotics even if your symptoms have already gone away. That’s the only way to make sure that all of the germs are killed.Symptoms like a sore throat or fever can be relieved by taking medicine such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen (paracetamol). Other things that may have a soothing effect include sucking throat lozenges, drinking tea or using home remedies such as neck wraps.
