My 22 month old son has developed a rash. It originated on his leg and I thought it may have been ringworm so I bought canestan cream to treat it. Since then the rash has spread to his legs, arms and tummy. It feels very dry and looks like small raised red bumps. He also has a rash on his cheeks and chin that gets worse throughout the day as he constantly wipes a this face. What could I apply topically to treat this or does this warrant a trip to the Dr. Thank you
Hi, Do not make self diagnosis particularly to a child. Ringworm you think might not be, and he might be having some other problem like infantile eczema or something else. It is better to consult dermatologist and get examined. Clinical examination of lesion will give proper diagnosis and then treatment. Ok and take care.
