Hi,

The condition about you are asking is probably HSP which is called Henoch Schonlein purpura. However the details of sickness of mother and daughter can better guide the disease diagnosis.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ammara Kaleem, Pediatrician
