My 4 year old DD had a skin reaction this morning (probably to a xmas present pig outfit I let her try on, stupidly without washing it first) - red blotchy skin around her hands/arms and a flushed blotchy face, both of which are not uncommon for her after eating (any food, it often seems). But she also had something that has never happened before - a big solid lump on the palm of her hand where her thumb meets it. It was like a proper deformity, and probably about 1cm wide and 0.5cm high. I was so glad when it finally went away after piriton. She said it was sore and itchy. Has anybody ever seen this before? It was really quite strange. We're at the allergy clinic tomorrow (for the first time in 19 months - too many appointments cancelled by the hospital to count) and so I shall ask then too.
