What Causes Skin Rash On Chest And Legs Of A Child?

My daughter is 20 months old, And EVERY time she takes a bath she breaks out in a thin red rash all over her chest, legs and sometimes arms. Her pedi. Hasnt Told me anything just to try a different laundry detergent, and a more sensitive baby soap like aveeno and i have, even though i know it wasnt ethier of the above and still no change. sense She Cant Really Tell Me what It feels Like I can Only Assume It Itches Her Sense She Kinda scratches at it and gets really aggravated when i take a wash cloth over her belly when washing her. I Want to know whats wrong so i can do everything i can to help her but nobody seems to know whats going on or just dont want to take the time to figure it out...

Hello,

This seems like a temperature induced urticaria or allergic skin reaction.

Nothing to worry about it. It is self-limiting, please.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
