Suggest Treatment For Red Blisters And Bumps On The Buttocks Of A Child

Posted on Tue, 29 Sep 2015

Question: My 9-year old son has big red blisters and red bumps on his bottom. He has had it for about a week.
I'm wondering if he's allergic to something and what I can put on it to get rid of it. He would get bad diaper rash when he was a baby.
