How To Get Rid Off Rashes On Legs?
Kids have been playing in the paddling pool, however after a few days all three of our children have started with spots on their legs and bottom. One of the boys that came to play had a similar rash on his legs and bottom and he said that it was just excma! I really didn t think that was contagious. Any ideas?

Hi
Since three of the kids seemingly developed a similar skin rash, so there is a high possibility of it being a contagious skin condition.
I would recommend that you should go and get it checked by a doctor as soon as possible so that proper assessment can be done to reach a final diagnosis .
The most probable cause seems to be some kind of an infection which spreads due to touch.
