Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son has a some what of a rash looks like mosquito bites or chicken pox. At first the doctor told us it was a virus but now he is itching all over. I have to keep him from not scratching. I don't even know what else it can be. He is not allergic to anything. I have tried to keep him moist but it wont help. I used a antibacterial soap and didn't help. I don't know what else to do to keep him comfortable.
2. I would also suggest you to apply calamine lotion over the itchy areas.
3. Please make sure that he does not scratch the itchy areas as scratching would aggravate itching and also could cause infection. Please make sure his nails are well cut and you can also make him wear socks & gloves during night.
Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.
Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.
