Question 1

infant had fever about 2 days up to 102.7 finally broke on day 2 but now has rash on head chest back and cries almost constantly?

Accepted Answer

Common patters: A lot of infant viral infections will have fever for a few days and end in a generalized rash. Some have names based on location and type of rash, but they are expected and rather benign.I'd consider the crying evidence it is not finished.As long as the kid takes fluids well and plays occasionally you can monitor at home.If not drinking the kid should be seen.

Question 2

our baby has skin rashes all over his face and even to his body.what could be the cause and how to treat it?

Accepted Answer

Rash: How old is the baby? Without looking at the rash, in person, hard to make right diagnosis and hence give you right suggestion. Consult a pediatrician.

Question 3

red rashes on the face and head only of 11 month old baby boy after sun exposure on the beach temporal temperature is 36.6 and very alert pls. advise.

Accepted Answer

Sounds like sunburn: A baby gets sunburn very easily. Even on a cloudy day, it is possible to get a sunburn, because uv light penetrates through clouds. I would strongly recommend to keep babies in a shade, not directly expose to any sunlight. A baby gets sunstroke more easily than older children as well.

Question 4

hi my baby has a skin rash only in the face it is small en red dots it's only getting worse by day i am not sure what to do and i am breastfeeding ?

Accepted Answer

Doctor can examine: Many babies get rashes. Baby acne usually starts in the first month or so, and goes away on its own. While the baby acne fades, he may start getting cradle cap (oily, flaky rash with redness underneath) on the scalp and face (called seborrhea on the face). Baby eczema (cracked, rough, or oozing skin) can start around this time, too. Doctor can examine for cradle cap, seborrhea, eczema, etc...

Question 5

Question 6

my baby boy  2 year old having acne issues from past month, at every two days he is having new acne on his face and sometimes on his hand and arms, no rashes and no red skin,  what is the reason for it?

Accepted Answer

Impetigo : A skin infection called impetigo may be the cause. Photos may be uploaded to HT virtual inbox consults or shared with your pediatrician. Keep the skin clean, avoid skin irritation and please follow up.

Question 7

baby has rash on her upper body and head?

Accepted Answer

Rash: This rash would likely need to be examined and more history obtained to be able to provide you with useful input about the diagnosis or possible treatment.

Question 8

baby is a month old and has had an itchy rash on head and face for a few days?

Accepted Answer

Dermatitis: dermatitis in a newborn can be hormonal (seborrheic dermatitis-the moms hormones are still circulating in the baby's bloodstream) or it can mean that the baby is allergic to something coming into contact with its skin. (shampoo, body lotion, detergent in towels/sheets, even moms deodorant can cause allergic reactions). Try removing these one by one to see what helps.

Question 9

my 7months old baby has a rash on her fore head and head, when she scratches it, it brings out fluid which spreads to other parts of the head and bring?

Accepted Answer

See below: See your pediatrician to look at this and evaluate/treat.  Hard to give a good answer without looking a the rash.

Question 10

my baby is 5 months and she has developed rash around her neck and its spreading to her head, forehead, shoulders and some parts on her body?

Accepted Answer

Too vague for label: Rashes are common in childhood &amp; can be triggered during/after illness, as an allergic response to foods or contact with a variety of agents. The description provided is too vague for a label. You can start over &amp; provide a better description of the rash or just have someone evaluate it. These often require a visual inspection to unravel the potential cause.
