What Could Be The Rashes On Face, Arms And Neck Of A 12 Year Old Child?

My 12 year old daughter came home from school a week ago with a rash on her face, neck, arms and torso. I took her to the doctor and he said it's not chicken pox, poison ivy. He didn't test her but said it's not an allergy. Sent us home and said it will clear up on its own in a few days. This rash is now worst. What would you recommend?

Hi,




Difficult yo say without examination.


Allergic rash sell bed itchy!

You can try some anti histamine!

The best option will be to get Dermatologist's opinion.

Good luck
