She's had a runny nose and a bit of a cough for a few days. Otherwise she is her usual self. Eating fine. Pooing normally.

I thought maybe she's slept on one side overnight and that it would fade. But no.

Any ideas?

It could be a viral rash, which is consistent with her runny nose and cough. I would just keep an eye on it, I expect it will fade in a day or two.

Thanks. Yeah, was wondering that, but the fact that it is only on her face kind of threw me a bit (still learning the strange ways of toddlers!). She hasn't got any worse, so hopefully this is all it is.
