Slapped Cheek is also called Fifth Disease. The following symptoms may occur:
1. Low-grade mild fever and flu-like symptoms
2. headache
3. stuffy or runny nose
4.sore throat
5.lethargy
6.In a few children there may be nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhoea
Several days later, a distinctive red, lacy-like rash, may begin on the face and gives the appearance of 'slapped cheeks'. This may also itch, and may spread to the body and limbs, sometimes affecting the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. The rash may take one to three weeks to clear during which it may periodically fade or worsen. It may also recur some time later following exposure to sunlight or heat.
