Patient's question:
The baby has had red patches all over their body since the morning of the 13th, with multiple small bumps on top. They went to the restroom and saw a doctor who said it was an allergic reaction. The doctor prescribed two tablets of loratadine to be taken in the morning and evening. By the evening of the 14th, there were a few more small bumps on their body, but they were much milder. By the morning of the third day, they had disappeared. These past few days, there have been a few bumps at night. Just now, two red patches appeared, but they disappeared immediately after applying a little pediatric baby ointment, and the red patches also subsided. What could be the reason? Could it be hives?Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, it seems the child is experiencing hives triggered by allergies. Treatment should be considered. The child can continue taking loratadine tablets orally, and if the symptoms are severe, hydrocortisone cream can be applied externally. The above suggestions are for the question "The baby has had red patches all over the body since the morning of the 13th." It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing you a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
