A member asked:

2yo mild fever & next day rash on back. it went away then went on cheek and now seems to disappear then appear new spot dots on mouth too what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Rash description is: too general, and if it moves from one location to another in less than a day, may be hives or heat rash. Lesions in the mouth are often found with a coxsackie virus referred to as "hand -foot-mouth" virus, but then there are lesions on hands and feet as well. If rash looks like a sunburn on chest, axilla and groin, it could be strep and child should be seen. Othewise, OK to observe a few days.
