Hello,

The symptoms of your daughter seem to be related to an allergic reaction. I recommend to continue using Benadryl daily. I also recommend to use Calamine lotion for local application and do cool showers.

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

Take care

Regards,
