Is A Purple Spot On The Forehead In Between The Eyebrows A Concern?
Hi. My son has a mysterious purple splotchy mark on his forehead, between his eyebrows. He was fine one minute and then emerged from his bedroom a few hours later with this mark. He said he didn t bump the area or hit the area or fall asleep on something, but he did mention laying on his stomach on the bed, with his arms and head over the edge while he used his phone and laptop. Is it possible that blood vessels were broken from having his head hung for so long? Thank you!
As per your case history, your son is having a purpuric rash. My treatment advice is - 1. Don't scratch the lesions as it may worsen the condition. 2. Apply an antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily. 3. Take an anti-histamine medication like levocetirizine twice daily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
