What Causes Skin Rashes On Face Of 4 Year Old?

my 4 year old daughter has a mild skin rash on her face (primarily nose and forehead), a little on her neck and on her stomach. They are just bumps, not red or irritated looking, and shes not itching or bothered by them at all though. I did just notice, though, that she has 2 canker sores on the inside of her bottom lip also. What do you think this could be coming from and does she need to be seen? Thanks

Hi...by what you quote I feel that your daughter is going through a viral illness and the same is being reflected in her lips and skin rash.

It could be any viral exanthematous illness. I suggest you use calamine lotion as its giving results along with oral antiallergic like Hydroxyziine or Cetrizine.

Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically. 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.
