A 5-year-old boy is brought to the Emergency Department (ED) by his mother with a rash.

He saw his GP four days ago with a fever, sore throat and chesty cough and was prescribed amoxicillin to treat a probable mild community acquired pneumonia.

He is apyrexial & currently well in himself but has developed a raised nonitchy rash to both his arms and  legs. You suspect that the rash he has developed is Erythema Multiforme (minor).
