Hello

Welcome to healthcare magic forum.

I understand your concern regarding your son's allergy problem.
I have analyzed his picture.
There is nothing to worry about it.
It looks like allergic dermatitis only.

To comment specifically I want to know about following points.
- Is he taking any medicine for allergy right now?
- Which cream, soap and other cosmetic are you using for his skin care?
- Is there any family history of allergy?
- Is there any other medical problem like cough, cold, fever in last 10 -15 days?

Awaiting your reply
Let me know if you have any further query.
Regards

Hello
Thank you for your reply.
Levocetrizine syrup (xyzal) at night is helpful in condition like this.
Cream like candid b will take care of both ringworm and allergy. It should be apply two times a day.
It will recover in 7-10 days.
It is better to consult dermatologist if not recover in 10 days.
I hope I answered your question.

Regards
