What To Do For Itchy Hives In Child?
My little girl is 3 years old, every summer time she develops bites/hives to her back/shoulder/arms. I ve noticed it could be linked to playing in the garden and heat. The bites are raised red inflamed. Very itchy, not on lines a small cluster then spaced out! Please can you give me any advise as to what she is being bitten from ?

She seems to have contact dermatitis. Try to avoid contact with grass and weeds. Try covering her well when playing in grass. Try syp levocet 5ml once daily and calamine lotion for local application. Regards
