My 20 month old has weird wart like spots- help

[Wannabestepfordwife]

My dd 20 months had a couple of red pimple type spots break out on her lower back on Thursday.

A spot then broke out on her external vagina and in the crease of her top leg where her nappy is.

Today when I have wiped her bum she has white spots/ warts and whenever I change her nappy there seem to be more.

Has anyone else had this/know what it could be. I'm getting myself into a right panic if someone could help please

Chicken pox? Ha she had a cold recently? That's usually the first sign

Can u post a pic? Take a look on google?

YY sounds like Chicken Pox. How is she in general?

Do they look like fluid filled blisters or thicker skin like warts?

Thank you for all the replies!

She has a bit of a temp and she's not been sleeping and she's been quite grumpy.

I would say they look more like fluid filled blisters

hand foot and mouth can affect the nappy area

Sounds like Chicken Pox

Here's a pic of Chicken pox in early stages

temp and grumpy sounds about right too.

are the spots only in the nappy area or have they spread further over her body?

Her spots look exactly like that sparkling

The spots have spread she's got a couple on her tummy, a cou

Dam iPhone a couple on her forehead and one near her ear

Does sound like CP Wanna. DS1 had it when he was two. he was covered, I was painting the calamine lotion on with a blusher brush.
They said it was unlikely DS2 would get it as he was about 4 months old. Then exactly two weeks later he had spots head to toe.

Has she been with children that have had CP?

Perhaps Chicken pox, Hand foot and mouth or even a yeast nappy rash? Take her to the walk In if you're stressing x

Tis the start of the CP season !

at blusher brush sparkling

Thank you all for your responses you've calmed me down I'd got into a right panic if I took her to the doctors they'd think wed done something to dd and ss would take her- I need to stop reading the mail/ netmums

How is she now Wanna?

We got about 2 hours sleep last night and she's broken out more especially around the creases at the top of her legs thanks for asking sparkling

Sounds like chicken pox.

Calpol for the temp and grumpiness.

Calamine and Zinc cream for the nappy-area spots. You may have to ask for it at the pharmacy counter.

Calamine everywhere else. Be generous with it, turn it into a messy game for her (paintbrush - yay!).

If she's itchy, Piriton syrup may help at night.

Day times, let her have several long baths made up with bicarb, cornflour and oats. Yes, I know that sounds weird, but it really helps. Cut an 8" length of nylon tights, knot one end, put 1 cup of porridge oats in it and knot the other end. Chuck it into the bath water, together with 1/2 a cup of cornflour and 1/2 a cup of bicarbonate of soda. Swish it all together, squeeze the oats bag, let her play with it. No soap, mo bubbles. Do not let her drink the bath water, and rinse the bath oat afterwards - it will be slippery.

Thank you for the advice hergraciousmaj will give it ago and think I will get dp to get her some knickers wearing a nappy can't be comftable for her

Are you sure about the knickers? You're going to have enough on your plate for the next couple of days, without having to mop up wee and poo.

2 of mine were only a few months older than yours, still in nappies, masses of spots on there privates, and the nappy did not seem to be a problem.

Their!

We've just started potty training so we might be ok but your probably right
