What Do Possibly Painful Yellow Pimple Bumps On Child's Legs Indicate?
My son is 3 and has yellow pimple looking bumps on his legs. He had these bumps about 3 months ago as well. I thought it may have been some type of bug bite, but he has like 4 or 5 of them on random spots on his legs. When you touch them, he says ouch.
I would keep a possibility of bacterial infection, folliculitis. If I was the treating doctor I would have suggested a week of oral antibiotics. Penicillin group of drugs like Amoxycillin, would have been my first choice.
An OTC topical antibacterial e.g 2% mupirocin ointment can be applied twice daily for faster relief.
