NEW PIC http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pi...3&id=662240565
Ouch. looks painful. Looks like something's been biting her to me.
Have you got any stingoes or stop itch? Might keep her happy enough to see how she is in the morning.
It deffinatly looks like shingles to me. Both me and DF and my goddaughter have had them
I hope the poor little darling is ok!
I've had a look, not really sure - to me it looks a bit clustery - like as if there's been something in her clothes in that spot - a burr, or an insect. Doesn't really look like chicken pox, possibly heat rash?
Sorry that's not been very helpful.
Edit: draw a circle around the area with a pen, that way you will easily be able to tell if it gets any larger.
it's hard to tell from the photo, but it does look like a shingles or chickenpox rash. could be even impetigo. Is she unwell? or have a fever?
She hasnt been unwell.... Well come to think of it she has been a bit sooky today but i just thought that was teething?
she kept arching her back today and i had no idea why.. maybe thats why?
It looks like a bite to me however it's never easy to tell from a photo. If the rash spreads by tomorrow it may be worth a visit to the doctor
Thanks Alan, i have an app at the doctor for other reasons tomorrow but will definatly be showing him.
:D Hi ya RR ... i'd take her to the Doc's regardless of whether it looks like it's going or not, i wanna know what it is as peace of mind & also incase it comes back again which it could (??) ... Hey, let US all know what the outcome is at the GP !! ... Hope beautiful Bella gets better very, very soon matie :crossfingers: xox
That is what the WCH said to another mum when they bought her daughter in for a rash. I hope you get some answers it looks ouchie, but looks a bit like a cluster of bites, like ants or something like that.:
Poor bubba, I hope it does keep her awake tonight!
If it were chicken pox I'd expect a wider spread.
More like a reactionary rash. Certainly looks angry.
(Adults get Shingles-kids get chicken pox. Same bug, different appearance.)
Off to the doc.
It looks like Chicken Pox to me. My nephew had them last week and he had a patch like that as well but on his bum. But I am no dr. I hope she's alright!
I have no advice but it does look painful. Huge :hug: to you and your DD. Hopefully it has dissappeared by now.
:hug:
i hope you find out what it is and that she sleeps ok tonight xxxx
Thanks for the fast replies everyone!!
I checked it again this morning and its still there.. its not as bright and angry but it is definatly still there.
Will let you know what the doc says. Thanks again xx
If it were chicken pox, I would expect it to have spread overnight. The spots often start on the tummy and back. It's hard to tell fromt he pics, but I still don't think it looks like them - they are usually little fluid filled blisters.
I am still leaning towards bites.
looks allergic to me, like an allergy to the grass or something but odd its so confined,
Yeh RR please DO let us know ... hope Bella got ' some ' sleep :pray:
