rash q

We got home from school, and I noticed DD's feet and legs are both covered in a rash.  It doesn't seem to go past her legs, and it's worst on her feet.  It's little red spots, but they are not raised, and DD says it doesn't itch.  No fever.  She was complaining yesterday of her throat hurting and being tired, and she was cranky as all get out.  I assumed she was getting a cold.

I'm about to call the school to see if they maybe had the carpets cleaned?  Like maybe she was kneeling on the floor...though she had leggings and socks on today.  And I was going to email the doctor after rest time if it doesn't look any better or looks worse.  Any other ideas?

I would give your doctor a call.

ETA:  no to sound weird, but is the rash on her butt too?  If so, sounds like it could be henoch schonlein purpura.

Weird would be if you asked for a picture of my kid's butt. Otherwise, we're all just mamas and butts are reality.
 
No, not on her butt.  It stops right about where her panties are.  So weird.  I emailed the doctor.
