Sore throat and a rash, any ideas?
4 Answers
Hi, my 5 year old had a really sore throat Friday and Saturday along with a temperature. Yesterday he woke up and had a rash on his body, it's mainly on his torso and not on his face. I think it looks like a sweat rash, the spots are only tiny and pink but don't look like the type that will blister. He is alot better today, but kept him at home just in case.
Anyone got any thoughts on what it could be?

But in future if you're worried about a rash remember to do the glass test for meningitus (A rash that does not fade under pressure will still be visible when the side of a clear glass is pressed firmly against the skin).
