Body Rash Help!
Posted: 10-12-07 03:41am

I was changing lelands diaper this morning , brandy already left to run to the clinic to drop off some papers from the hospital, and he has a rash on his groin area well more up on his pelvis area, but then i looked and it goes up onto his belly, i lifted his shirt and its all over his back to and on his arms. His face looks ok. Its just like little red bumps or something. I was trying to get a hold of brandy or tanja but i couldnt to take him to the clinic with em. What could cause a rash like this?

How old is he? Maybe it's a food allergy. Have they changed laundry detergents?

hes 1, we think it might be laundry detergent but not really sure because hes worn clothes in the detergent ive been using before, then we were thinking heat rash, he has a little on his face to but mostly on his stomach and back.
