DD has been unwell since last Wednesday, started off with cold like symptoms, fever, runny nose, after a couple of days she was up for two nights screaming with what seemed like stomach pains. On Monday she came out in a rash on her tummy and back so took her to the GP who said it was a virus and that the rash was viral. Yesterday the rash disappeared completely but today when she woke an hour ago she now has another rash but different to the first. Under her arm and on her leg she has like a big red blotch and on her face and tummy and some on her arms little white spots with redness around them. They don't seem to be itchy and she doesn't seem bothered by it at all apart from still being grumpy. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hives?
Heatrash?
Shingles??? (although I assume she hasn't had chickenpox)
Stress?
Some Immune Disorder (her body creating a rash on itself to try and fight something like a cold?)?
Food allergy?
not sure, maybe you could take her to the GP again or even go and show someone at the chemist and see what they say. i hate rashes, they are very hard to 'self' diagnose!
By the sounds of it, my bub has the same rash. It started over 2 months ago and it is still appearing every few days. I've been to a doctor, dermatologist and naturalpath but still no result. A month ago, the dermatologist concluded that it was a post viral rash however I have my doubts as if it was, I would think that it would be gone by now. Initially, it was quite hive-looking however now it comes and goes looking like mosquito bites then flat red spots.
Have you managed to find out as yet? Is it still appearing?
My DD has just come up with a rash all over her face It started yesterday on one side of her face, on her ear, neck and shoulder and now it is on both sides but not on the trunk of her body.
I was told it is a viral infection and just to put sorbolene cream on it twice a day, it looks so uncomfortable for her and it is quite distressing as her mummy to see this on her.
I am wondering when it is going to go away as well. She is still bf normally and plenty of pooey and wet nappies, I just feel for the little poppit.
What could this rash be, please help
