Little man has been off his food the last 5 days, refusing most milk feeds and had a fever all day yesterday (which has now gone thankfully!) We took him to the doctors when only one or two spots were present but now curious to see if anyone thinks this is chicken pox? Some look blistery(ish) and other still red spots. Done the glass check etc and he’s not itching them just very fussy other than the odd smile like this one! Anyone else’s little persons chicken pox start the same? Xx

Also seems to have a sore throat as as soon as he does accept food he gets a shock and starts crying after he’s swallowed!

Possibly hand foot and mouth.

I would get this looked at asap

Thanks guys - did they also have spots on arms, legs and torso?

Turned out he had strep A 😣 thanks all xx
