What Causes Brown Spots On Cheek?
Hello, to my daughter 4 years it showed a brown stain on the face (as the thumb print) last Saturday In 2-3 hours has dimmed. The next day at lunch, appeared another spot on the right cheek and a little spot under the eye and a small trail on the left shoulder. The spots have disappeared without a trace in a few hours. We did blood tests (hemoleucograma) and blood values are slightly below normal. Mention that she ate a few peanuts on Saturday (which may have an allergy). Yesterday also appeared nothing. What do you think about? Allergy or something else? The skin is not changed, no blisters or anything. There was no itching on the spots. What blood tests should we do to her?Thank you

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The brown spots on the cheek can be because of the allergic reaction to pea nuts. It can be a erythema multiforme. Nothing to be a panic, consult your physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take an antihistamine like chlorphenaramine maleate.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
