What Do Rashes All Over The Body Indicate?
my 11 year old has a pattern all over his skin from head to toe pretty much all the time. It looks like what your skin might do if it were too cold-modeling? I have noticed it these past months. No new soaps or detergents or fabrics or meds. He suffered a pretty bad concussion on 9/11/16 and was just released from treatment from the rehab hospital (outpatient),but the issues were more speech, penmanship and focus related after the initial headaches went away. He is cleared now. Don t know if that is related, but the only new item? Does this need to be checked out?

Hi,
The sudden onset of rashes all over the body, might be related to pox virus or another skin pathogen responsible.
An evaluation with skin specialist is mandatory here.
Till that time, tub bath with Epsom salt and lavender oil will support greatly in a herbal way.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
