7 Year Old With Reddish Bumps On The Side Of The Mouth. No Itching. What Is It?

My 7 year old woke up this morning with tiny red bumps on her side of her mouth. She isn t supposed to be allergic to anything and hasn t had any change of foods or medicines or washing detergents. I have her some Benadryl recommend from a nurse at Walgreens. They don t itch but its only on around her mouth they re not red spots but just little bumps. Close to her temples, mouth, nose . But nowhere else. Do you know what this could be?

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

I can understand your concern. It is very difficult to tell the cause of the bumps described by you without seeing them. I would suggest you to wait and watch and see the effect of Benadryl. Just ensure the face remains clean and dry. In case they persist then kindly show them to your doctor or a dermatologist.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your daughter an early recovery.

Regards,

RKK
