on both cheeks, both arms and a few on the tops of each thigh. She has had the bumps on her cheeks since she was a few weeks old. The bumps on her arms & legs only started once she was a bit older, but they are there every day. Some days they aren't as noticeable but they are still there nonetheless. I have tried diprobase, vaseline, E45 and Oilatum cream and none of these things have seemed to make much difference. They don't seem to bother her, no itching or anything like it, but they can be a bit unsightly.
Does anyone know what this could be or have any experience in dealing with it with your own children?
I am debating on whether or not to take her to see the GP, but I'm a bit wary to do it since it doesn't seem to be causing her any distress. My husband is lactose intolerant and I am starting to wonder if this may be the case with her or some other food allergy.
Many Thanks!
