So my daughter who turned 2 yesterday has had an itchy raised blisterlike rash come and go from her arms, legs and cheeks for the past 3 nights now? Shes had a bit of a cold/virus for around 4 days... I dont know if the two are rerelated. The first night i thought it was hives or something but looked worse when it came up again lastnight so took her a&e where they advised its an allergy reaction or something and gave me piriton for her, which i have been 4 hourly since i we got home at 2am... But still today she went for a nap an hour or so ago and the rash is back up her legs and arms.. What is this?

I don't want to throw names at you because it could be absolutely anything. But if the rashes are reappearing, then I would take her to the gp asap. Avoid things escalating.

That sound similar to the rash my 8 month old has. Has him to the docs last night and was told it was a viral rash. It has spread all over his cheeks and legs today. Was told it would calm down in a few days

Found out shes having an allergic reaction to the virus, piriton wasnt helping at all but she has something else now and it seems to be keeping that rash at bay :)
Lots&Lots of cuddles, icecream, books and Moana/Trolls on repeat haha
