My 2 y.o. son has a rash on his cheeks and chin. this rash is constant for months but flares up at times. my mother has lupus. is it possible for him?

Unlikely: could be eczema--flaring because of creams/lotions/soap/foods. try eczema cream by aveeno--this is not lupus--dont worry.

Rash: This rash is not lupus? It sounds more like a contact dermatitis , perhaps from drooling, or a case of eczema.
