A. It sounds like your son may have a skin condition that requires further evaluation, especially if the rash is spreading and not responding to the prescribed medications. Here’s what you can do: 1. Consult a Dermatologist: A specialist can examine the rash to identify the cause, such as an infection, allergic reaction, eczema, or another condition. They may suggest tests like a skin swab or blood test if needed. 2. Avoid Scratching: Ensure your son avoids scratching the rash, as this can worsen it or lead to a secondary infection. Keep his nails trimmed. 3. Use Gentle Skincare: Wash the affected area with lukewarm water and mild soap. Avoid using harsh products or creams unless prescribed. 4. Monitor for Symptoms: Note any other symptoms, such as fever, itching, or pus formation, and share these details with the doctor. 5. Hydrate and Protect Skin: Apply a hypoallergenic, fragrance-free moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated (only if the rash is not oozing or wet). If possible, share a description or details of the rash (e.g., red, raised, itchy, blistered) or consult a doctor immediately for further advice. Rash treatments vary depending on the cause, so it’s important to get a precise diagnosis.
