Patient's question:
The child is almost 14 months old, a boy, weighing 22 pounds. Recently, there were a few small bumps around the waistband of his pants and on the inner thigh, with some water droplets on them. Today, new sores have appeared on the waist. Attached is a picture. Please help me identify if it's an allergy or something else, and what should be done. Thank you very much!Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, it is inferred; upon careful observation of the uploaded description, it is considered to be urticarial papules (insect bite dermatitis). This condition is often caused by insect bites, and you can investigate for mites such as dust mites or room mites. For treatment, you can use topical Fingolimod cream (red packaging), which should suffice. The above is advice for the question "What should I do if my 14-month-old boy has sores on his waist," and it is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
