DD (6) has an itch rash on her chest and groin (see photo).
Started on groin area on Friday evening and has now spread. She also had a blister on the inside of her lip after school on Friday. I took her to Boots Minor Ailments and they gave her bonjela for it as it hurt and I thought it was a mouth ulcer. This has now practically disappeared.
I've given her piriton to calm the itch and put some diprobase on the rash.
Any ideas what this could be?
Spots don't appear to be blistering (yet). Unsure if she's had chicken pox as when she was exposed the last time (practically the whole toddler group caught it) she got 2 small blister spots on her back but nothing else. She also had scarlet fever a month or so ago and it took 3 weeks and 2 rounds of antibiotics to clear. The rash appears to be different to the sandpaper rah she got with that.
