DD has had a virus the last couple of days - snotty nose, bit of a temperature at first, probably sore throat (as I now have one !). Most symptoms now gone - still slight snotty but back to her old self and hasn't had a temp for over 24 hours. This afternoon I noticed a slight rash on her legs - red pin pricks, a couple with little white heads on. It blanches so presume nothing horrific. Afte her bath it was much redder and showed up on her arms. I kept her unclothed to cool down and it went down on her arms and reduced on her legs but is still there. So, any ideas anyone please ?

Possibly just one of those rashes that goes with viral illnesses - if it gets worse or you become concerned about it, give NHS Direct a ring for advice.

Managed to post this twice - oops !

Long waffle on the other thread but my initial thought was that it was to do with the virus as she's had this before - just looked a bit worse than normal but I guess different viruses = different rashes. THanks !
