There's a few things it could be - depending on other symptoms, if it's there now etc. Suggest getting GP to see him.

Contact dermatitis? Have you changed bubble bath?

Has he got it anywhere else ?
Could be sweat rash, allergy, bites.
If it’s localised maybe shingles, are any of them blisters ?

Interested in this thread?

Was going say looks like shingles

Thanks for the replies, can you get shingles if you haven’t had chicken pox? The back of his knees are worse

They seem to clustered to me to be chicken pox?

It won't be shingles. That's only after you've had CP and only affects one side of the body

Could it be molloscum

mumof1littlebun · 10/10/2021 20:15

@Mrspimplepopper I have wondered about that

The legs definitely look like molluscum.

The shingles was mentioned before we knew he had it elsewhere.
