What Causes Frequent Rashes On Hips And Under Thighs?
To Pediatric Dermatologist,
Hi.. This is PN Reddy, from Hyderabad, India. We have a Baby girl of age 1 year 7 months, she is having frequent rashes (reddish very tiny ) on back of hips and under thigh. Our regular pediatric doctor asked us not to worry as this is may be regular routine allergy, But this from last 3 months. What you want us to do..? Do we need to consulte any Pediatric dermatologist or it is common in all kids.

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it is an allergic reaction but you may want to determine what is causing the reaction to occur.
Allergy testing may help to determine the source. An allergist or dermatologist may be the best person to do this testing. It can be in the form of a single blood test or skin prick testing.
Once the allergen is identified then hopefully exposure can be limited and this would reduce her rash.
I hope this helps
