What Causes Patches Of Raised Bumps On Legs And Arms In A Child?

my son is three months old he has these circle patches of raised bumps on the back of his legs and arms. They are the color as the rest of his skin and he doesn t have a fever. Was just wondering what they may be. I give him a bath every night and put regular baby lotion on him.

Hi... I sympathize with the kid and understand your concern. The trick of the management is keeping the skin moist and never allowing it to be dry. For this oil massage and lotions like Oilatum will help. Regarding cure options - eczema is a sort of allergy...allergies can only be controlled and can never be cured. But usually kids grow out of it...that is as the age progresses, they become better starting from 6 months.
Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
