Not sure if my son has "slapped cheek virus" ( I have another thread with his symptoms and a question!) but his cheeks have been pink for about three weeks now, following a flu/fever which lasted for a week.
I had thought slapped cheek pink face went away rather quickly- but am reading here and there that it can last for weeks-- for those of you whose kids have had it, how long was their face red or pink for? did they also have a body rash? ( ds does not have that now) and did the pink/red come and go a bit?
