Hi,

DS11 has this rash all on the left side of his torso. Not sure if it could be a heat rash (but don’t think so) as has just done sport and we are in a hot country. 2nd one is a close up of the spots.

Many thanks

If it’s just one side then it could be shingles, I would get it looked at x

Is it itchy?

I am really hoping it’s not shingles. I will get it looked at in the morning.
Yes he said it is itchy but not painful. seems fine otherwise.

Thanks for replying.

He has also been vaccinated against chicken pox but had a couple of mild rashes in pre school that Dr said could possibly have been chicken pox.
