my 2 yr old son has had a rash for 2 weeks tiny red spots with pin prick white head, now they are turning into large raised lumps and the pin prick is black. he has seen 3 doctors over the last 2 weeks they dont know what it is he also has a high temperature.
Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case of severe pain under the left rib cage, I would come up with three possibilities, these include: 1. The first possibility is of strep to- or staphylodermia. It looks mostly as bacterial infection. Try giving antibiotic -Amoxiclav 50 mg/kg divided for 3 times for 7 days. Apply Chloramphenicol to affected area 2 times a day.2. At the second, I don't suppose it would be that molluscan virus? Its harmless if it is. You should apply also Betadine or iodine 3 times for 5 days. But in this case rash is not raised so much.3. It could be a post viral rash, or an allergic reaction to something, a contact dermatitis. You can discuss this with your Dermatologist. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow-up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions. Wishing you good health.
