Does this mean he needs anibiotics?

Not sure, but I'd get him checked over all the same.

Yes he is very hot, he is allergic to penicillin too.

I'd call the out of hours doctor if I were you. Good luck - I hope he gets better soon.

Just been to our local out of hours doctors surgery and he has an infection, there are also yellow spots on there. He said to just carry on with the Calpol and Ibuprofen to reduce his temp and he should probably start to feel better in 3/4 days. As he is allergic to Penicillin the Erythromycin isn;t very good for this type of infection and he is not sure that ab's would help anyway. A massive ice cream has helped anyway lol. Looks like dd is coming down with it too grrrrrr, what a shame on a lovely weekend like this.

Glad you got to the doctors. Hope the LOs are feeling better now.
