ds has a rash on chest - vrey small red and widely spaced little spots. I don't think it's cpox - but there was a notice last week at nursery of someone having had it. he's not at all bothered by them and is fine in himself.

Does it look like any of these rashes? \link{http://images.google.com/images?q=CHICKEN+POX&hl=en&btnG=Google+Search\Chicken Pox Rashes

If so go to the NHS Direct website for advice!

Hope this helps.

Oh god nothing like these rashes - v. much smaller - I think maybe just a heat rash of sorts. But those spots on the link are v. scarey - I hope he never gets it!
