Suggest Treatment For Child Suffering From Itchy Rashes

Hello Doctor, My three year son has developed small itchy rashes one months back. It started as a small patch behind neck but slowly spread to his shoulders and elbow and lower back. Consulted a dermatologist. She advised applying momate and atrax for five days. the rashes seemed to have almost dried up. On second consultation she gave lycosole and another cream. But soon after the second visit the rashes have reappeared and dont seem to go away but are instead spreading. please advise

Pediatrician 's  Response
The cause behind the rashes needs to be looked into. The medicines given by your dermatologist are proper and please continue the medicines without worrying. Had I been able to take a look, I would have been better able to comment. Get a blood count including the platelet count and leucocyte differential count done. Please get back with the reports and I will try to help further.
