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.
What Causes Recurring Red, Itchy Splotches And Spots On Abdomen And Back?
My 12 year old daughter gets itchy red splotches and spots/dots on her abdomen and back. It mostly happens when she gets out of the shower. They don t show up anywhere else on her body. We use Tide Free and don t put fabric softener in the towels. He clothes don t seem to bother her, so I don t think it is an allergic reaction to anything. This has been going on for at least a year now. I asked her pediatrician about it, but she didn t seem to know. Any ideas would be great!
The symptoms seem to be related to eczema. I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
