DD is 2 almost 3 and has been unwell since Tuesday. I got a call on Tuesday afternoon to say she was very unsettled and they thought she was possibly constipated as she kept saying she needed a poo but only produced some very small ones.
When I collected her she then had an upset stomach which was loose but not watery. Since then she has had a temperature on and off and on one occasion was very sweaty. She has been off her food. Tummy seems to have settled right down.
Every night she has been very unsettled and having awful night terrors (not sure if related to high temperature). Yesterday she woke up with a very red face which looked a bit spotty. A few raised red spots and a couple of small ones just under her bottom lip with white heads. Also developed a rash on her chest and tummy that looks to me like a viral rash.
Today she still has some spots on her face and also has a scabby bit on one side of her nose and underneath. Face doesn't seem quite as red. Her tongue also looks a bit red and she said it was a bit sore. Now she has had three raised red spots with no head come up on her back, tummy and shoulder.
Has anyone got any ideas? I was thinking possibly chicken pox, hand, foot and mouth or impetigo? Any ideas?
TIA
