Suggest Treatment For Red Rashes On Face
My fourteen month old got a red rash with white splotches earlier today on her face, then it went away shortly after it came. Tonight, there was a similar rash in her diaper area that acted in the same way; it went away shortly after it appeared. Minutes after that rash was seen, another, smaller rash appeared on her face again. This, too, disappeared very shortly after it appeared. What is this and should I take her to the hospital or doctor?

Hello. I just read through you question.
This is very common in babies and is not alarming. As long as the rash goes away as quickly as it came, there is nothing to do. It won't leave any permanent discoloration or scar and it is not a sign of underlying disease.
