Figure Legend:
A 5-year-old white male who had a history of continuous fever, progressive pharyngitis, swelling of the anterior cervical lymph nodes, and decreased appetite on first examination. A rapid streptococcal test was positive. The patient developed multiple petechiae from the supraclavicular area upward. The patient was treated with oral amoxicillin and the rash and pharyngitis responded rapidly. Copyright Stan Block, MD, FAAP
