What Causes Small Red Dots On The Face And Hand Of A Child?
hi my son is 5 months old and he has had these flat small red dots on the side of his face and one on his ear one in his hair line and one on the side of his hand. i noticed them on sunday night should i go see a doc. or is this a rash? he isnt sick and dosent have a fever? i dont know what to do?
Hi... I sympathize with the kid and understand your concern. As a matter of fact even my kid had this when young. The trick of the management is keeping the skin moist and never allowing it to be dry. For this oil massage and lotions like Oilatum will help. Regarding cure options - eczema is a sort of allergy...allergies can only be controlled and can never be cured. But usually kids grow out of it...that is as the age progresses, they become better starting from 6 months. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
