Hi my son has a bad rash on the back of his thighs and one bottom part of back leg it is red and more intense after bath raised itchy and very faint on tummy and tiny patch upper arm, I gave him a nut about a week ago by accident but rash is getting worse not better as week progresses he does have sensitive skin could it be eczema or nut allergy or other? Thanks
Hi dear. In cases of eczema there are water filled lesions which ooze out. As u said there is only itching. This must be nut allergy. This is a delayed type allergy as it started after a week. Usually the delayed allergy takes time to go off. Just be careful not to give him nut. For now give him some antihistamine and if it doesn't decrease in another 2 days please meet a dermatologist. He may consider starting steroids. Thank u
