My 5 year old came down with this rash suddenly Monday evening, rang 111 who gave us an ooh appointment. Doctor there thought it was an allergic reaction and prescribed antihistamine.
Two days later the rash hadnt faded and she was coming out in fresh spots so we went to our Gp, she said she had never seen a rash like it before and didnt know what it was . Antihistamines have made no difference whatsoever, GP said to bring her back if she becomes unwell with it or the rash changes.
Another two days later and the rash is still there, and still new ones are appearing. She has a few chickenpox scars and this new rash looks like the scars - white spots some flat some raised. Luckily she is not ill with it but im concerned about whats causing it? Anyone have ideas?
