Have to see it: Rashes are best diagnosed by having a healthcare professional look at it.  Recommend that you see your provider or setup a telehealth consult so that you can be treated with the appropriate medication if needed.  Ringworm does have a circular raised appearance, it can itch or burn and spreads easily. There is an antifungal cream that you can use, sometimes takes weeks for it to go away.

Accepted Answer

Rashes ? : Rashes are visual, meaning we need to either see them or have you write a description that is adequate to provide a mental picture. This public HT site does not allow us to see uploaded pictures, so unless you can start over &amp;  describe the rash in enough detail to yield an obvious label, you'll just need to have the kid seen if it bothers you.

Question 10

does heat rash spread?

Accepted Answer

Keep cooler: Heat rash usually resolves in a few days unless you continue to sweat too much.  So dress in cooler clothes or remove a layer of clothes, blankets, etc.  Try not to use any topical creams or ointments that can also hold in heat.  Keep  cooler and the rash should go away on its own.  Cool water will feel good on the rash. Solarcaine gel would help with comfort also.
