Have G6pd Deficiency, Pimple Like Red Rashes. Cetaphil, Physiogel Not Effective. How To Cure?
good day. my daughter also has a g6pd deficiency. she is now 29-day-old, her rashes appear when she was 7-day old. it first appear on her eyes then, it scatter until on its neck. Its like a small pimples.currently it become reddish. her doctor prescribed her cetaphil for her bathe and physiogel for cream but it seemed its not effective.
The key in the management of skin diseases is making an appropriate diagnosis. A rash could be of viral, bacterial or fungal origin. Skin irritations, allergies and systemic or autoimmune conditions could present as rashes. A proper past medical history and clinical evaluation with laboratory tests if need be, to make a proper diagnosis, especially when they fail to respond to common therapies.
I strongly suggest you consult your family care physician, who might consider meeting a dermatologist or not, depending on the case.
Thanks and kind regards,
