Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a 2 year old little girl. We went to the pool today and this afternoon she seems to have developed a rash on the left side of her chest around her nipple area in about a 4 in radius or so around it, and also blotchy areas on her face a couple little spots on her upper thighs. I gave her some benadryl, but it doesn t seem to have helped it at this point.
It is caused by chlorine that is used in pools. I suggest you to use corticosteroids cream for some days, and make shower your child every day. Don't worry he will be better soon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Blerina Pasho, General & Family Physician
