Ok its a strange one but ds has a rash..

[Donbean]

If i describe it, could you tell me what you think?
Its mainly over his lower legs, arms, hands especially his palms.
Its worse around his joints.
Nothing on his trunk at all or face.
Not itchy.
It has started to blister in places.
Not changed washing powder, dont use bubble bath, not eaten anything unusual.
GP says it could be allergy/viral and could go as quickly as it apeared.
He has been very very naughty this passed two weeks which usually signifies something brewing with him.
No temp,just irritable and a handful.
Came up over the morning before my eyes.....

What do you think?

[AnAngelWithin]

[Donbean]

Oh and while im here, i have given his some piriton, that knocks me out for a bout a month.....he is raring to go...WHY FFS!!!!!

dd had molluscum, mildly admittedly, and it didn't look like that - just the odd spot here and there on her trunk.

No idea what it is, but hope it goes away and stays away! Viral rashes (undiagnosable) are pretty common at their age...

Oh, and piriton has same effect on dd, for some reason, she gets hyper on it!

[Donbean]

oh bugger! thanks

[Donbean]

just googled molluscum and its not that, looks awful

[EliBoo]

dd's looked like two or three tiny blisters, with red around them, and would occasionally come up when she was coming down with a cold. But she seems to have a cracking immune system, thank goodness. So its not always awful...

Let us know what happens!
