Koplik's spots

Koplik's spots are tiny red vesicular lesions with blue-white centers on the mucous membranes of the cheek, inner conjunctival folds and vagina. Koplik's spots indicate that the patient has a measles infection; the spots appear about 2 days before the characteristic rash and last 1 to 4 days.
