Suggest Remedies For Red Blotchy Bumps On Stomach And Armpit
My daughter got out of the bath this AM with mosquito bite size bumps with red blotches on her belly and in her arm pits; not on arms. I put Aveeno anti-itch cream on them and when the cooler room temp hit them, they went down in size but there are still red blotchy bumps that itch her on her belly, sides, and under arms. She is 5 1/2 years old and is up to date on all immunizations. Thank you for your help. Kris Fort Wayne, IN

Hi,
It seems to be urticaria. It is an allergic reaction to food, medicine, infection and sometimes occurs without a cause. I would recommend you to give her antihistaminic like syrup hydroxyzine thrice daily for 7-10 days.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
