What Is The Treatment For Rash Associated With Itching?
Hi, my daughter developed rash. It is very itchy and she has it for 4 days now.
She was given Tylenol on Sunday and Monday due to low fever and ear pain. She is fine now but the rash bothers her a lot especially at night. What can I do to help her get rid off itching? Thanks

Hi,
As per your query, your child has rash associated with itching seems to be due to our environment, insect bite, pollen, heat, cold, pressure and sun exposure. The most important thing is to find the trigger factor.
I would suggest you give cold compresses to rashes several times a day to prevent from swelling and itching and take over the counter antihistamine drug like benadryl. If symptoms still persist the consulting dermatologist for proper examination and treatment. The doctor may perform skin test and challenge to find out the trigger factor. The doctor may prescribe mometasone along with the anti-inflammatory drug.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
