Hot, red patch on DS's face

DS1 (nearly 5) woke up with a sore throat and temp yesterday.

Today his throat's still sore but temp's down but I've noticed he's got a patch on his cheek about 2cm from his ear and about the size of a 20p piece which is red and feels hot when I touch it. He says it's a bit sore.

Any ideas what this might be?
