Question:

My 16 month old Daughter has a Pin Prick Rash?

It came up on Saturday along with cold like symptoms, the first doctor i saw said that it was the measles, the second said it was a rash caused by tonsilitis and gave her some antibiotics she has been on them for 4 days now and is getting worse not better, does anyone have any idea what this could be? She has had no really hig temps just a bit of a cough, but now is sluggish all of the time.


Answers:

did you seek another physician after the second one gave your kid anti-biotics? because by the looks of it, the physicians you saw really did not exhaust all means to assess you kid's condition. the cold like symptoms and if accompanied by fever may indicate several conditions, we, in here cannot make any guess as to the kid's disease, or even diagnose it for it to be properly treated. you need to see, another physician, one who would actually take a close look at your kid, have some medical and laboratory examinations done, and observe closely. only when your kid is diagnosed properly can real medical regimen be given, and this should be done fast. do not wait for any further deterioration in the physical health of your child, bring him in for a complete medical check-up.

as for the rashes, have you ever checked whether it maybe caused by outside conditions such as heat, environment, clothing, detergent? all those things must be under consideration, who knows, your kid may just be hypersensitive to those things.

but, please do not self-medicate. seek proper medical attention.
