sorry me again questions re the mmr jab, which J had 23rd april.

we noticed yesterday (might have been there sunday but I din't get him dressed/undressed deffo wasn't there on sat when I got him undressed) a sore on his chest - there's only the one. it looks red and roughish around the skin of it, doesn't seem to be effecting him in any way.

was just wondering if it could be chickenpox as we do have those going around at the mo. any thoughts?

Chicken pox spots generally increase in number fairly rapidly.

it doesn't really sound like a reaction to MMR.

Keep an eye on it, if it doesn't go away in, or if it gets worse, then ask the GP to take a look.
