Please help! This rash is on my two year old! It’s been on his leg for a few weeks but I thought it was hit his eczema. It’s starting to look worse and it’s spreading. I’ve been trying for weeks to get him on the Georgia Medicaid but it’s taking forever or I would have already set up a doctor appointment. We just moved here from Texas so idk if the environmental is making it worse or if it’s even eczema or something else??

ER maybe?

It looks like my eczema when I have a break out and itch it. Try hydrocortisone cream.

I def am not a doctor. But that’s in the fold and could be from heat and eczema. My daughter had it so bad she would make herself bleed from the rash and the itching.

@doimakeyourandiii, I’m thinking it’s eczema too. It just got bad out of no where and started spreading, that’s why I got worried

@wild_flower94, my daughter’s eczema spread as she itched it. She eventually grew out of it I guess because it’s no where near as bad but the worst parts for her were in her diaper. I think it was worse from the moisture and heat and then her scratching. We used an eczema cream in this red and white bottle and it was the only that helped. But that was 7 years ago too.

@doimakeyourandiii, I’ve been using coconut oil but it’s not helping. I really want to take him to a doctor! I can’t believe how incredibly slow the children’s Medicaid process is out here in Georgia

@glencoco, okay I’ll try that!

Oh and I just saw the other pictures. My children had heat rashes that looked a lot like that. Anywhere their clothing touched on their chests and back and their necks had those bumps. They would cool off and relax and stay cool and they would go away.

@doimakeyourandiii, okay thank you! I was thinking it was poison ivy or something

As the other ladies said. The heat and sweating can exacerbate the eczema. Hydrocortisone cream can help, plus keeping it dry.
