Rash on face

Does anybody know what this rash is on my sons face? It is on both cheeks. It is hot to touch and has been there since yesterday morning. I have given Piriton but its not had any effect. Its hot to touch and he says its itchy.

He did break out in hives in Dec after a really bad tummy bug... doc put it down to post viral. He has just been poorly with a cold too so I'm wondering if it's that? Thank you.

One of my children has just come down with Slapped Cheek - looking quite similar to this. Often appears after cold symptoms.

Non-contagious after the rash has appeared and pharmacist recommended calpol/piriton to help with any side effects but just to wait it out and will pass in 1-3 weeks.

Of course, if May not be this so keep an eye out and look for any other symptoms x
