Rashes are often caused by contact with an irritating substance (diaper, underwear, etc.) Sometimes hopsitable bills can become expensive. \n\nYou can take some extra pre-cautions until you are able to speak with your regular doctor. 1)Place the baby’s buttocks near a tap and wash down with running water after every bowel movement to give diaper rash relief. 2) Another common remedy is to Dab the area dry rash area with a soft cloth and apply Vaseline ointment or any rash-free creams or gel. \n\nIf the rash becomes worse than before, then I would seek medical attention ASAP.

I too am allergic to wheat, corn, dairy, cats, house mites and house dust oh and some trees. no grass though. I have been taking Atarax at night, because it makes me sleepy and then Allegra 180 in the am. By the way i was diagnosed with Uticaria, Skin Writing. Get with a good allergist, really push him, make him write a small dose of some form of anti histamine. And, as horrible as it is, keep your child off the foods that make him allergic. But  in saying that, foods may or may not make him itch, it could be just one food. Corn does make me itch. I can sneek a few foods in once in a while. I thank the Atarax and Allegra.\nGood luck.

It could be just the process of growing and if he's a very active little guy, it could be understandable.  But just to be on the safe side, I would take him to a pediatrician or at least call the pediatricin and talk to them about it.  Never hurts to get the little ones "checked-out" from time to time.

You didn't say how old she is.  Children can get viral syndromes which cause a red rash.  Roseola is one they get, in which they may have a fever and be a little ill, then often the fever drops, and they break out in a red rash.  It is contagious to them, but relatively harmless, nothing special to do for it.  Of course measles causes a red rash.  They will be sick for a few days before they break out.  We don't see it much, with the vaccine being given to most.  They will get pretty sick with measles.  You just keep their skin clean so they don't get secondary infection, and give them a liquid diet, something they can hold down.  If they get worse, they need to see a doctor, as they could have secondary pneumonia, or even measles encephalitis, which is a rare complication.  I suppose you might know what hives looks like.  Hives is big splotches of elevated reddish "wheals", that usually itch.  It is usually an allergic reaction to something, and we usually can't tell what.  We just treat it with benadryl and steroids and it gets better.  These are the most common things.  Of course you can get a rash with an allergic reaction to something, such as to an antibiotic.  There are more rare types of skin outbreak, like Stevens-Johnson syndrome.  If the skin starts breaking down and looking really "angry", it could be that.  They usually get that as an allergic reaction to some drug, and it requires high dose steroids to combat.  Hope this helps.  It probably is just a mild virus like Roseola, and will go away on its own. If it is bad or gets worse, have her seen in ER.

It sounds like he could have some type of food or environmental allergy. Try bringing him for a second opinion.

You should try to find our what caused the rash. But for immediate relief, use calamine lotion, and have a anit histamine. If it does not settle you should see your doctor.\n\nGood luck

It is a infectious disease-mostly kids get--with a rash on feet, hands and mouth--it goes away in about 14 days--no big deal

She must be extra allergic to them.  She should probably see a doctor.  Don't worry.  If she's not sick other than the rash, it's just an allergic reaction on her skin and nothing bad will happen to her.

You should definitely see a doctor.\n\nThe rash could be a fungus or an infection.  Try an antifungal cream or an antibacterial ointment.\n\nPerhaps it's poison ivy or some other irritant.  Make sure you wash the area clean with soap and water.

If the visit was supervised, With who? Perhaps a Court appointed. Then that person would also see the rash. He does have the right and should take the child to the doctors. He doesn't need your permission he is the child's father. And it is very likely the hospital reported to DHR. Some states it is mandatory. I don't know how extreme the rash was but if all is well you should have nothing to fear. And be happy he cared enough to have it checked. There may have been no malice just concern on his part.

Do you think it might be important to know where they are on your son?  How old your son is?  How they showed up?  Any other details about these bumps or any symptoms associated?  I left my crystal ball in my other sport coat.  Give details and I'll edit my answer later or tomorrow.\n\nIf there are many surface, possibly coalescing, "pus bumps" with a reddened base...this sounds like a contact dermatitis, like poison ivy or poison oak, but sometimes people can have strong reactions to other chemical agents etc...you didn't mention that there was itching, though.  You should use Domeboro solution - it is available at your local drug store.\n\nIf the pus bumps are associated with a hair follicle then this sounds like a folliculitis.  Essentially it is an infection of the hair shaft.  Oral or topical antibiotics are useful.  It is from the bacteria that is normally found on the skin.\n\nAlright that's the best I can guess given the information.  If it doesn't sound right, of course taking him into his pediatrician is a very good idea.  Good luck.

It's a skin rash, usually. It's caused by coming in contact with toxic chemicals. You will probably need an ointment of some kind, like Bacitracin or Neosporin. If it's REALLY bad, go see a dermatologist.
