Any Idea About Leg Pain And Red Rash In Thigh Of Child?
My nine year old son is very active and he has been complaining of pains in his legs... like muscle pain... for the past few days...this evening he has come out in a slightly raised red rash all on his upper thigh... I am wondering if you have any idea what it could be... he is in good health otherwise. Thank you.

Rash could be likely to be due to Impetigo.
As he is maintaining good health there seems to be no cause for concern.
As with any other skin condition , diagnosis requires visual examinaion of characteristic of rash, do get back with cinical photograph.
Take Care
