Heat Rash??

newmum09

My DD has a rash on the top half of her back the last week, it was behind her ears to start but gone from there, it comes and goes on her chest and arms, It has been really warm the last week. Her form is excellent and she eating. drinking as normal.

Any suggestions to clear it up.... using aqueous cream on it and have her in loose clothes?

Rang doctor to make sure it was not anything else and they didnt seem to worried but its been a week now with the rash..should i get her checked out again??

Could be what is referred to as "fifth disease".

You should bring the child to the GP for peace of mind at least though.

My little girl has the same on her back but I think it's heat rash too. Not bothering her at all and I am also putting aqueous cream on at night.

My little man has it as well, all over, since last Friday. He is perfectly well, so I think it's heat rash. Once he is not bothered by it, neither am I.

Same here, mainly on his chest, but it doesn't seem to be bothering him at all.
