Suggest Treatment For Rash On Bottom Of A Child
pin worms in children
A couple of weeks ago, my 6 year old daughter was diagnosed with Pin Worms. She was given a medicine and symptoms seemed to fade. Over the past week, her bottom and towards the front have developed a minor rash with chicken pox like bumps on her outer butt. The itching is driving her crazy, should I take her back to her pediatrician or just give her another round of pin worm medication?

Hi...I suggest you take her back to her pediatrician. This rash whatever you are describing doesn't seem to be related to pin worms or their treatment. It could be an altogether different fungal infection or an allergic reaction. I suggest you get back to your pediatrician before it spreads too much.
