What could red blotchy rashes on face and swollen eyes in an infant mean?
Patient: Hi, My 4 month old baby has broke out in a red blotchy rash on her face this morning (she had it before but it went after a while) & swollen eyes. The weather has been hotter than usual today but had her with minimal clothing all day. It seems to be itching her & irratating. She normally has red bloches all over her bod but thats due to fair skin. She has also has 4 bouts of diarrhea since yesterday. Although she is taking her feed we. Im weaning her at the moment but havent given her anythign new she could of reacted to. Any advise would be great. Thanks Doctor: Hello,Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly.
