What Is The Cause And Remedy For Rash On Neck Of 2 Years Old ?

While bathing my 2 year old grandson I have often noticed that he has a red pin dot rash at the back of his neck close to the hairline, that seems to come and go.. He has just had his 2 year old shots 2 day ago and the rash is very noticeable about 3 inches in diameter.
Thankyou for any help you can give me.

Hi,

It may be prickly heat or miliaria rubra. There is no need to worry. To confirm the diagnosis,you may consult the dermatologist. I would recommend you to sprinkle clotrimazole powder,whenever the rash appears. It may disappear as the time passes. Keep him in cool place. Keep him away from hot atmosphere.


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

Regards,
Dr. Ilyas Patel, Dermatologist
