A member asked:

My son keeps getting a rash/bumpy spots at night, nothing in the day. they appear on his face ,arms and legs. what could be causing it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Insect bites: I suspect bed bug bites as they can bite anywhere there is skin, especially on areas that are exposed during sleep. A dermatologist can evaluate your child for diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime inspect your son's bed area carefully.
