DS who is 21 months started scratching like a demon yesterday afternoon and has developed a v 'fine' rash - it's so small that it just looks like his skin is pink, but its spreading - started yesterday on shoulders and neck and is now to tops of thighs. Piriton seems to be helping with the itching
He does currently have runny nose (thick green snot -nice), temperature and cough which the GP says is viral not bacterial. rash doesn't look viral - it's not purple or blotchy.
He hasn't eaten anything out of hte ordinary, we haven't changed washing powders or used any different creams or lotions.
he does have v v mild eczema which is usually completely under control through epaderm.
does anyone know what this might be and any ideas? why does he always fall ill at a weekend?????
