Suggest Treatment For A Rash On The Knee

My 5 year old has a small non itchy pimple like cluster /rash behind his knee and above his right foot. It does not bother him at all though it hasn t changed any (I ve been using a cream for excema) It hasn t gone away and it s been well over a month. Should I take him to his doctor? Thank you

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Ya surely you need to take him to doctor. It needs to be diagnosed first what the lesion it. It might spread in future or cause further trouble, so its better to be treated at the early stage. Do not use any cream as by using such creams the nature of the skin gets altered and it hinders in proper diagnosis the disease.
