Question: I need help for my daughter!. She is only 3 yrs old and Im not sure what to do!.!.!. !?
A little over a month ago we noticed she developed a rash over her body ( red and goose-bump like rash ) She has very sensitive skin so we make sure we use Non-Fragrance bath products and lots of Lotion that was recommended!.!. We took her to the doctors and they advised us that she has Eczema which to use this steroid cream and if it does not go away within a couple days to bring her back because she might be allergic to it!.!.!. So we noticed after a couple of days the rash spread even more but to her hands and feet!.!.!. So we took her back again!.!. Then another doctor told us it looked like Scabies!.!.!. They gave us more medicine for our whole family to take and gave us procedures to do for the house to kill the mites!.!. After a week of this the rash got worse and my daughter cannot stop itching!.!.!. So we took her back again and another doctor told us its not scabies its eczema again!.!.!. She said continue with the steroid cream and it should work if not she needs to come back again!.!.!. Wells its been about 2 weeks and we have been applying the cream but its not going away!.!.!. I don't want to continue using steroid cream on here as i have heard of the side effects!.!.!. But the doctors keep giving us different diagnosis's !.!. How long are you supposed to use the steroid cream for !?!?!? Should she see an allergist maybe!.!.!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

why isn't she at a doctor!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Go see another dermatologist if you can!. A good dermatologist should be able to differentially diagnose the problem!. It doesn't hurt to get a second opinion anyways!.
It also wouldn't be a bad idea to start keeping logs of what your daughter is eating/drinking, just in case it is a food allergy!. You might start noticing a trend (i!.e!. if I feed her this, 6 hours later she itches more)!. If you suspect allergy, an allergist can do a "pin prick" test on her back to figure out what she's allergic to!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
