[quote=Anonymous]My 6 year old woke up yesterday with strange raised "bumps"/a rash on his lower legs ( they almost look like red pimples with white heads). Initially, I assumed they were hives and didn't think much of it. Gave him Benadryl. Today, the bumps have spread to his arms (not as many as on his legs) and I just noticed one on his chest. They are red and he says that they itch. I took him to the urgent care center, and the doctor was stumped. Said probably bug bites and give Benadryl - suggested follow up tomorrow with pediatrician, which I will do. He did say he has seen 2 other kids with a similar rash. I don't understand how he could have so many bug bits - he hasn't ben anywhere with bugs. And why would they be spreading? So, anyone else have a mysterious rash? I am wondering if it is a mild case of chickenpox, although he has been vaccinated. [/quote]
