Question

My baby has a red rash on the back of his thigh. After applying moisturizer for a month, there has been no improvement. Recently, a similar rash has also appeared on the back of his neck. The rash has now developed into a granular form. What could be the cause? Could it be due to insect bites?

Answer

Based on the description and observed symptoms, it is suspected that the rash may be urticarial papules, usually caused by insect bites. It is recommended to check if dust mites or bed bugs are causing it, and if so, take measures to control these pests. For regional dermatitis, you can use anointing ointment to relieve symptoms.
