ds came down with a high temp last week and gen off food. On friday he had 2 spots on his chin and some cracking ulcers in his mouth. GP couldn't determine whether it was cp due to few spots but gave him some abx because the mouth spots were infected and also had thrush Sad She said it wasn't hand, foot and mouth though as ds has already had it and it looks sl different.

He has had another 5 spots on his face and they have scabbed. But now another couple of teeny ones have appeared on his eyelid??? I thought they would have stopped by now. Plus the spots have looked a bit more 'acne- like' rather than liquid filled. Does this sound like cp to you or something different?

New spots today wouldn't be due to CP last week, although he could be getting CP now and last week was something else!

I think throw out the CPox diagnosis, and think about a mild allergic response to something.
