Brief Answer:
Rash

Detailed Answer:
Hello. I just read through your question.
This is very common in this age group. The first step is to make sure she moisturizes 2-3 times per day. Additionally, you can use a low potency hydrocortisone cream. A this layer of hydrocortisone cream twice per day will usually decrease the inflammation and alleviate the itch.
