DS1 (4 next mth) has a red blotchy flat rash on his face, neck, top of shoulders and has started to appear on his lower back and his front.
he's off to the Dr's in an hr, but just wanted to know the likely hood of it being slapped check or something else?
He's eating fine, no temp, although his redness is hot. And he says he's tired.

Dr says it's viral, that about it. Keep him off school to the rash starts to clear and give him calpol if he needs it.
