Does this look like a teething rash or something else? Seems fine in himself . He's not at nursery but does have a 5yo brother

It looks shiny as I've put some vaseline on incase it's chapped . Started yesterday, seemed fine this morning but is back again .

Awful picture but it just looks like dry skin

It doesn’t look concerning at all

I think if it was slapped cheek, it would be more red and your LO would be unwell (hot, clingy etc).

Is he unwell? I’d suggest Slapped Cheek and there may be a lacy rash on his body too.
