I have attached the documents and photos of affected areas. pls advise your opinion.
Brief Answer:
Looks like Urticaria and not drug allergy
Detailed Answer:
Hello...this rash does not appear to be like a drug rash.
This looks like Urticaria.
You can use Hydroxyzine (Atarax) at 1-2mg/kg/dose every 6th to 8th hourly for 7-10 days. But this is a prescription medication and you will require a doctor's prescription for this.
Most important thing to be remembered is that it has a propensity to recur (called as second crop) within 10-14 days. If this happens, you can start using the same medicine but I suggest you get the kid evaluated with your paediatrician.
Best regards Dr Sumanth Amperayani
