Suggest Treatment For Rashes On The Face And Chest
My daughter (8 years old) has a light rash on her face, chest and back. No other symptoms. She feels perfectly fine and the rash, itself, doesn t bother her. This is her 3rd day with it though, and it spread a little bit today. When do I need to take her to a doctor?
