I’m waiting on a call back from the Drs after sending them pictures of my son’s rash. He saw the Dr yesterday morning because he had a bumpy rash on his bum (which is still there and we got cream for), but then yesterday afternoon his face got quite red. It had been a little spotty but I thought it was just a dribble rash from him teething, but now his rash around his mouth is quite big.

He seems well in himself, if a bit grumpy every time he has his bum changed bc of his sore bum.

I’m a worrier by nature and this rash has appeared (and spread on his bottom) quite quickly. Obviously I won’t be happy if it is impetigo but I’d rather know that it’s not anything too drastic.

So while I wait on a call back- opinions?
(Sod’s law they’ll call me back as soon as I post)

Looks very similar to what a lot of children at my work have and have been to the dr them diagnosed with impetigo. X
