Rash & temperature?

Hi, DD (6 months) has developed a rash in the last few days- flat red marks on her arms, legs and cheeks only. Today she’s running a fever (38.3°). I’ve done the glass check for meningitis, and the spots fade away, so that’s a relief, but I wanted to know what else it could be? She’s also out of sorts at the moment

I can’t find any photos online that match what I see- I’ll try to post a pic of the rash in the thread

Don’t know if I’m being a panicky first time mum, but feel a bit scared as she’s not been ill until now so any advice appreciated!

This is not a drs. I would highly suggest you ring to speak with your gp as no one is qualified on here to tell you what it is. Its always best to be safe rather than sorry. If calpol isnt shifting the temperature and a rash has now developed i would call 111 tonight for some advice
