Is it normal for children to come out in random spots? We’ve had this problem since June last year although June was quite bad she was getting spots that were growing and then leaving scars on her skin and the dermatologist said it just looked like impetigo from infected eczema (Although by time we got the dermatologist appointment her skin had cleared so she was just going off pictures) Since then she still keep getting random spots on her body they’re not getting any bigger which is good but I don’t know what’s causing them. They’re mainly on her front or back hardly on her legs or arms never had any on her face/neck. (More on her tummy but odd time on her back) We took her to the doctors in February again and she said it’s viral rash. But that went now then she got some in March they went now got these yesterday quite a lot this time.

I’ll attach some photos, they are also not itchy or irritating her. (It’s definitely not chicken pox)
im going to be ringing doctors in morning but wanted to know if anyone has had similar with there kids.

Well spoke to doctors this morning over the phone sent some pictures in that I posted last night. He said that it might be chickenpox even though I’ve told him it goes and then comes back every single week near enough so I don’t think it is chickenpox it’s not itchy and she’s not poorly, he said if you’re worried to come back but I am worried that’s why I rang The doctors in the first place has anybody had similar because I can’t help but worry but it’s not urgent enough to go to A&E and sit in there for hours and waste time. These are the spots this afternoon.
