What are the possible causes of persistent, generalized itching without a rash in a two-year-old child who has a recent history of fever, rash, and febrile seizures, and whose symptoms remain unresponsive to cetirizine while undergoing antibiotic therapy?

In a two-year-old, persistent itching without a rash after a recent illness can sometimes be a reaction to the antibiotic therapy itself, even without a visible breakout. It could also be post-viral skin sensitivity or dry skin as he recovers from the fever. Since cetirizine isn't providing relief, it is very important to contact his pediatrician. They can review his current antibiotic, evaluate his symptoms, and ensure he is safe and comfortable. In the meantime, cool baths and gentle moisturizers may help soothe his skin.
