What Causes Bumps On A Child's Leg?
Hi, my 4 year old daughter has pinkish bumps all over her legs while sleeping last night. They itch and looks like hives. It cools down for a bit and comes right back. I'm not sure if it's from the heat or what causes it. Can u help with this. Thanks.

The lesion are likely to be urticarial rash usually caused by mosquito bites.
I assume there is no associated discharge.
Local appliction of Calamine lotion along with oral antihistaminic will provide much needed relief.
In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Wishing you happy and healthy life
Take Care
