What Could Be The Itchy, Red Bumps On Body Of A 6 Year Old Child?
my 6 year old daughter has been itching her privates and tonight after her bath, I noticed some very small red bumps on the outside folds. it doesn't seem to be bothering her that much and there are no other symptoms so I was wondering what it could be?

Itchy raised lesion in the perineum could be Scabies.
Diagnosis will depend on visual inspection.
Would suggest you to send us the clinical photograph or altenatively consult your Pediatrician.
Permethrin Ointment application will be curative
In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Wishing you happy and healthy life
