Uncertain?: Chlorine Rash – may appear as raised bumps that contain fluid which are found predominantly on arms, knees, armpits & groin. They may cause itching, burning & skin peeling & result in dry skin. Chlorine may cause swollen, itchy, painful, red/ dry or watery eyes. It may cause shortness of breath, chest tightness, sneezing or coughing. Ingestion of chlorine can cause nausea & vomiting. Reactive >

Is she swimming: in a pool????? Chlorine can sensitize the skin in some people....advise in any case a LONG shower as soon as leaving the pool (or other water) along with a moisturizing body wash! Hope this helps! Dr Z
