Pharyngitis, anterior cervical adenopathy, and fever precede characteristic scarlatiniform rash (diffuse, finely papular, 'sandpaper-like', erythematous rash that blanches with pressure). Rash begins on the trunk and may spread; it is accentuated in flexural creases (i.e., under the arm, in the groin, in the elbows) often with petechiae, producing red streaks known as Pastia's lines. Cheeks flushed 'scarlet' with circumoral pallor. Skin desquamation may occur 3-4 days after appearance of the scarlatiniform rash. Tongue may be inflamed with a white coating and prominent papillae ('strawberry tongue').
