um, boots for anti histamine?

Sounds horrid. I'd go to Boots, take the advice of the pharmacist and head to the walk-in centre if they advised a prescription would be a better option than over the counter meds.

I would try anti histamine first.

A friends son had something very similar this week. Turns out he has slap cheek which unusually is presenting itself on the body this time round.

I'd do OOH TBH.

Mrsfred · 07/07/2012 08:18

Dd1 had slapped cheek that started on her limbs. It looked like bad blotchy sunburn. It only moved to the face after a couple of days.
