Could he have measles?

[Mum2boy]

My son is just recovering from a middle ear infection (2yo) and just today started to get a runny nose, sneezing and all the symptoms of a cold, which amazes me because he has just finished antibiotics?!

Anyway, when I gave him a bath tonight, I noticed that there are about 10+ red spots on him around his side of his tummy, and more moving around to his back, kind of on his sides. He doesn't have them anywhere else that i have noticed.

Do you think that this could be measles? I look really closely at them, they appear rather flat, with a really tiny tiny little white dot in the middle of the spot in some. He has been vaccinated completely for everything BTW.

Thanks.

Often kids get a viral rash or a reaction to the AB.

Thanks mrsmac, i've been keeping an eye on it, and the spots disappeared yesterday, so it seems you are right about the AB.

Actually, speaking of side effects of AB, Coopers teeth have slightly yellowed since he went on the AB. Has anyone else noticed this when their childs been on them?
