Bit worried about DD this morning so hope someone can come along and reassure me. She's had mild eczema on her legs since 4 months old (now 1yo) and yesterday after taking her to the park I noticed she was scratching a lot, and when I looked she had come up in lots of weals all over her leg, where her eczema is, almost like several mosquito bites or like an allergic reaction. It calmed down after about 10 minutes and went back to just the usual red patches. I put it down to her having reacted to some grass pollen or something on the playground, but this morning when I put her in the buggy I noticed a couple of weals on her leg again and she hadn't been outside yet. She hasn't eaten anything unusual, I haven't changed our washing powder, so I have no clue what's going on. Could this just be an eczema flare-up and could the raised white bumps be caused by scratching? Or do I assume that she is reacting to something and do I need to give her Piriton?
Hope someone has an answer... thanks!
