Hello, I am from Hyderabad .my 3 yr old son has got severe rashes like small pimples which are causing itchiness on his legs including the genital area since 10 days . we have consulted a dermatologist locally and he gave medicine for scabies which we have applied . but still the rashes have not got cured and slowly the small pimples are appearing on the hands , stomach area and face.please suggest us what to do.Also my son is having atopic dermatitis . is there any connecting between those rashes and this.
I have gone through your query and i understand your concern.
Firstly let me say there is a close resemblance between Atopic dermatitis and Scabies. These are distinguished by their are of spread. Are the so called 'pimple like' rashes appearing in a line lying close to each other? If they are present in the armpit, waist , wrists along with increased itching at night and also aggravated by warmth, there are high chance that it might be scabies. Please do take a second opinion with another expert as soon as possible.
On either case, as a homeopath, i would suggest a suitable potency of medicine Hepar sulp or Sulphur after considering more details of the case. This would prevent further recurrence of the rashes.
I hope your query was answered.
Please fell free to share your concern and feedback,
Wish your son good health.
