3 Year Kid, Red Itchy Bumps, Looks Like Bites. Another Son Having Sane Symptoms. Any Ideas?
hi this morning i noticed on my 3 yr old son a red itchy bumps,they almost look like bites, up on the left side of his neck and back arms as well, he says there really itchy and my oldest son has almost the same thing but on his leg and back and arm fingers just wondering if this something that they should be seen for ( chicken pox?) or something else?

Hi,
Any rash which erupts suddenly is mostly an allergic rash.Chicken pox or any other viral rash is associated with symptoms like fever and cold.
If your sons have an itchy rash you could give them an antihistamine and calamine lotion for application on rash.For a final diagnosis i would suggest you get them examined by their doctor.
Regards.
