Hi. My 13mo old daughter is getting a rash at night. It is only on her stomach and sides and looks like little red bumps with white heads. It s very itchy, and she has scratch marks all over her sides but in the daytime it is completely gone. Doctors thought it was just an outdoor allergy but she hasn t even gone outside in over a week. I haven t changed any other detergents and only use the free and clear brands. Any ideas??
The fact it comes only at night it means it happens only when there is a skin exposed heat by clothes or blankets. I think from your description it's a heat rash, in which it's disturbing to the child because of the itch, it's caused by blockage of sweat glands. Most of the time it resolves by its own, and you need to cool the skin. I hope this helps
