  1. roseola infantum

    Roseola infantum, also known as sixth disease or roseola, is a common viral infection in young children, typically affecting those between the ages of 6 months and 2 years. This condition is characterized by a sudden, high fever followed by a distinctive skin rash once the fever has subsided. Despite its initial severe symptoms, roseola is typically a mild disease and is usually not a cause for concern. It is caused by two common strains of the herpes virus but is not as severe or long-lasting as other types of herpes infections.
