How Can bumpy Itchy Rashes On The Feet And Knees be Treated?
My 8 y ar old woke up this morning with a rash on his knees, elbows, fingers, feet, ears, and pubic area. The bumps are small raised red a bit itchy... it Seems like an allergic reaction but weird that it is limited to these extremities . Any insight what it might be? Could it be contagious- not sure if I should take him to see a dr...
The symptoms of your son seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I recommend you to give antihistamines daily such as Cetirizine.
I also recommend using steroid lotion for local relief.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
