I would call NHS 111 just in case. I had to call for my little girl a few weeks ago. It turned out to be nothing but it wouldn't hurt to check especially because it doesn't blanch

I just got off the phone with the GP. They aren't concerned due to no other symptoms and have said to keep an eye on it. Fingers crossed it fades. Did you ever find out what caused it? It's the strangest thing!xx

My little girl's rash was a bit more red and covered her all over. It was viral and went in a couple of days. Glad to hear there's nothing to worry about!
