Let's play - what on earth caused this rash.

[Allthewaves]

Ds6. Rash appeared on torso and upper legs Saturday morning, not itchy, not complaining, no temp. Threw up Sunday morning but then absolutely fine. This is rash now Monday afternoon. It's happened once before a few weeks ago. He's had chicken pox as a toddler.

Iv no idea what's caused it.

I can't help you I'm afraid but my Dsis and a friends daughter have both had exactly the same. No sickness though. They hadn't been anywhere near each other and the only similarity was they had both been in a hot tub a few times in the last month. Not the same hot tub though.
Has your dc been in a hot tub?!

Hmmm... it does look chicken-poxy. Possible to get more than once but not 3 times and so close together...did rash fully disappear a few weeks ago and how quickly? Or cocksackie virus? There’s so many different kinds, my DS has had at least twice and he’s only 2...

Could it be the start of Molloscum Contagiousum?

Cheers. Tbh I don't think rash and vomiting are related. They have been on the paddling pool hmmmmm

Prob viral rash then. He's happy as Larry. Have kept him in today just incase he was infectious.

Hi, how did it resolve at the end? Any idea what it was. My son has the same symptoms, but each day this rush gets worse , more reddish. Mostly torso area, groin, upper legs, underarms are affected. No spots on the feet or face/head or throat , no fever. Just sore throat and runny nose. Anti-allergy tablets didn’t help…

Hi. My douther has same sympthoms as your son @Juliaflower , we try anti Alergy drugs too and it still grows. No itchy, no fever ... would you please tell me what it was to your son ?
