It looks like psoriasis to me. How long has she had it? X

Has she been bitten by something? I react badly to insect bites & they often look like this. Antihistamine cream & piriton helps.

I often get these on my chin and have had them in reaction to the sun.

Are they blisters? I've got shingles just now and I know they are a patch of blisters, could it be shingles?? Although mine are in my fucking mouth so I can't see them properly

Just googled a pic

Yeah they look like little blisters.

She's had it a few days not itchy or bothered by them 😕.

She has had exczma in the past and they seem to have arrived with the hot weather.

Think a trip to the docs is in order.

Thank you for your replies!

Let us know how you get on x

Looks like shingles, tell the doc it's suspected so they don't keep you in the waiting room too long.

Aw what a wee shame, but glad you got it sorted. I knew they were exactly what I have in mouth as soon as I saw them. I don't know how it effects younger people/kids, but my whole body is aching (even the soles of my feet) and I have absolutely no energy to anything. I hope your DD copes better than I appear to be.
