Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Fifth disease is also known as Erythema infectiosum. It presents with reddish rash over both cheeks, classically described as Slapped Cheek appearance. It is a parvovirus B19 infection.
Please do consult ENT Physician.
