The treatment for slap disease aims to alleviate symptoms such as redness in the cheeks, fever and malaise, because there is no specific medicine to eliminate the virus that causes the disease. Treatment should be prescribed by the pediatrician or dermatologist and involves rest and ingestion of: Antihistamine medication to reduce redness of the cheeks and other parts of the body such as back, arms, trunk, thighs and buttocks; Anti-thermal medication to control fever; Analgesic medicine to relieve pain and general malaise
