Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your child has rash comes and goes off and on. And doctor gave treatment of scabies, which did not responded. If the rash is itchy, red and plaque, it may be hives or urticaria. There may be some cause like worms, pollen or dietary factor as eggs, fish, prawns, banana, soya or cow milk. Give her antihistaminics like Desloratidine or Levocetirizine in proper doses after consulting the dermatologist. And avoid the contact of suspected allergen and do not give triggering diet.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
It would be a great help if you attach the picture of the lesion along with your query. It can be heat rash or fever blister.
You can apply calamine lotion for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
