Should I Take Child To Emergency Due To Bumps In Arms Back And Diaper Area?
My infant daughter (7m) has started showing bumps on her arms, back, & diaper area. She's on day 7 of her antibiotics for an ear infection (amoxicillin). She doesn't have a fever & is sleeping now. We have her 7m appt in the morning. Is this something I should take her to emergency care for? What could it be from?

Hello
Yes you should take your baby to a pediatrician for proper evaluation and to rule out pyoderma. Although fever is a common associated symptom of pyoderma but it is not always there. This is not an emergency condition unless there are other symptoms like cold or warm body,refusal to feed or inappropriate behaviour.
You can visit your pediatrician in the morning.
