Anyone know what this could be on DD's leg? (Pics)

[notaregularmom]

I first noticed this on her leg this morning, it goes around her whole leg and is really straight, my first thought was she must of drawn on herself but she's only 3 and couldn't draw that neatly, next thought was maybe she had put a hair band around her leg but just got her out the bath and it's still there I'm totally baffled as to what it can be and google isn't much help and I've asked her and she's doesn't seem to know either.

I would have said hair bobble too. Has it faded at all?

No it's exactly the same as this morning, it's really odd.

That's really odd that it hasn't faded, sorry I'm no help 🙄.

I'd say due to something tight around the leg.

Is there a hair around it?

I think I’d have that checked out. It’s very odd. Has she got a hair wrapped around it at all?

Nope no hair, that too crossed my mind this morning. Im really stumped

It's not bumpy or scaly or anything it's just flat and has no ridge at all.

Maybe take her to the pharmacy, they're quite good at diagnosing skin things.

It’s so straight and clear that its must be contact with something. Either an elastic or sometimes even a bit of hair gets wrapped around body parts and leaves a mark. Socks, trousers etc.

Something that ‘straight’ I wouldn't worry about. I’d put it down to something she’s either deliberately or accidentally put around her leg (hair band/kids stretchy bracelet etc) or pulled up (socks/ pjs). I’d wait and see what it’s like in the morning.

Tell her she’s not in trouble - but does she know what might have made the line?!

Not that I think she’s scared of you 🤣 but some small kids worry about getting into trouble over the daftest things 🤷🏻‍♀️

Welly chafe?

I'll see if it's still there tomorrow and if it is I'll get it checked. I swear my kids only get ill/have mysterious skin conditions on a Friday always when the doctors aren't open. Thanks guys

@Em308 she hasn't worn wellies in weeks or long boots.

If you stretch the skin does it fade at all?
No ideas other than what's been said

Surely a long sock?

My daughter had that on her wrist from putting an elastic band on it. When the indentation from where it had had been went down, she had a flat red line for a couple of days where it had been.

My eldest put a hair and around her wrist once and my husband didn’t notice when checking on her before bed so it wasn’t found until the morning by me. I immediately removed it and told my DH off. Anyway, the Mark lasted weeks! So I’d still say a hairband.

Has she had her leg stuck in anything recently!? Can’t think what..maybe cot sides or something?

Did she have socks on that high? Dd used to get this exact line on her leg with a specific pair of socks, we realised after a couple of wears the socks were causing it and stopped using them.

Any change today?

@Cocolapew still exactly the same this morning, hasn't faded at all it's so odd.
She only wears ankle socks so can't be high socks. It's baffling

Tight socks or hair band. X

Does she wear pjs where the legs rise up the shins overnight?

Is there anything in her bed?
