red swollen sore cheeks, slapped cheek?

[ditavonteesed]

poor dd2 is having a rough few days, anyway yesterdxay evening her cheeks went bright red and they are really ot, they are still the same today, last night we gave her piriton before bed as we thought it was probably an allergic reaction to something but now I think it is probably something more. Will it be slapped cheek, dd is tired and not very hungry but otherwise herself.

If it is slapped cheek what can I do for her?

bumping this as I am a bot worried, going to take her to docs this morning (hopefully) but the rash is spreading all over and she has a sore throat so i am now worrying that it could be scarlet fever. Any experience anyone?

It might beTeething... My 23 months has it on & off !!!

Shouldn't be giving any medicine before you check, I call our Chemist and ask for advice. Hope your child is better now.

thanks for the reply, sorry forgot to update, dd is 8, it was an allergic reaction to some medicine she had on sat, she is on a strict regime of piriton and rest for the next few days. Hope your little ones teething isnt too bad. :)
