Rash but no other symptoms

8 replies

Nic21k · 23/12/2023 23:42

Just wondering if anyone can help to put my mind at ease. Have noticed a rash on my 6 year olds back. It’s doesn’t feel rough or itch her. She said it doesn’t hurt and that she does remember hitting her back on the door earlier but it didn’t really hurt. She doesn’t have a temperature or any other symptoms and is now fast asleep but I’m panicking about what it is!! She has just gotten over tonsillitis and just finished her course of antibiotics yesterday but has been completely fine in herself the last few days. Am I worrying over nothing or should I get this checked just incase?? Thanks x

That looks like a bash that will turn into a bruise, not a rash. Esp if you can't feel it.

It looks more like a bump than a rash to me

She's no temp, seems otherwise well?

I'd see in the morning but I expect it will all but have gone

Try not to worry

Looks like a bruise developing.

How is she @Nic21k ?

She’s absolutely fine!! Thank you for the messages. I got myself in such a panic as both my children have been so unwell this month and we have had constant doctor and hospital visits! She’s now running around full of energy and I’m exhausted from a night of worry. The joys of parenthood haha

Looks like she’s scratched it / bruising to me and not a rash.

I agree with the others it’s a bruise.
Chill and have a nice Christmas 🎄

Looks like a bruise to me too, she'll probably have a nice big one there later! Kids aye?!
