they are probably just harmless cists that grow on the skin. they are like pimples but have more goo in them and come back in the same spots

My son has this problem. I took him to the dermatologist and she recommended using Certain-Dri. It's an antiperspirant that you can buy from most pharmacies. This just occurred in the last week, so I can't tell you if it's successful or not yet.

Sounds like some kind of allergic reaction or rash, I would go see a doctor.

Your doctor can give you a prescription that can help it to go away and then began using it at the very first tingle if you feel one coming on again.  I have never heard the food connection to a cold sore.  Illness, stress, sun exposure are all things I have heard.  But, if you keep getting them, you definetly should be replacing toothbrush, toothpaste and mouthwash after every time or at least sanitizing them with boiling water.  Also are you using the same makeup, makeup aplicator or if you are male the same shaver, be sure and sanatize everything.  Change your pillow cases, anything that might have come in contact with your mouth, clean it or throw it out and start over.  Hope these tips help.  And sometimes if you are just run down and have been sick, your body has to rebuild and you might have several in a row.  I know I have.  Nothing over the counter will do the job like the stuff the doc. can prescribe, but it isn't cheap....:)  There is a prescription cream the doc can give you called Zovirax and it does help cold sores...

Bathe him with soap and water often, esp. after he urinates or deficates. Keep his diaper off to air dry after his bath, and for as long as possible. The air will help. Use a diaper rash cream with zinc in it, in the morning and at night. If this doesn't clear it up, then bring him to see a Dr. it could be a very contageous skin condition that needs a medicated treatment. Use gloves to apply the zinc cream to protect yourself, just in case.

I work at a children's hospital and we see these all the time.  Sometines they get better by themselves, but if they begin to get discolored and swollen than this can mean that it is getting worse and needs surgery.  It is very common for these kids to be seen by a surgeon for this problem.  If you are unsure then go to an Pediatric ER and see what they say.  They may just refer you to a surgeon or tell you that it is okay. Either way you're child will get the care they need.

i live in hawaii as well as i'm from florida where both places have so much staph. you only get staph from open sores that become infected, puss like stuff will be coming out and no it doesn't itch. hurts like hell all the way to the bone. i spent a week last year in the hospital due to staph which is not something to mess with. your child sounds as if they have a rash of some sort. go see a different doctor.

If you are sure it is a heat rash, and you are still being exposed to the heat source, then you should be okay.  But if you fear it is something else, then by all means, go see the doctor.

I would take him back to the doctor.  I would think he needs to be re-evaluated.  Tell the doctor that you suspect it could be a yeast infection because he is itching.  Children can get yeast infections.  If it is, maybe they could prescribe some Nystatin. Also~ Don't forget to give him probiotics if it is yeast.  (Found at your local health food store)

Go see another doctor, the previous one was an idiot. Bumps under your skin isn't somethinga real doctor would just say, "hmm, interesting, but I have no clue. Bye, have a good day."

I really hope that you are not serious. Go back to the doc and have him place your son on a generic antibiotic much cheaper.

Not too much to worry about.\n\nYoung children who get scraped while playing, tend to re-injure that area.\n\nA Two year old is a very active age....No need to remind you of that...smiles.\n\nBefore you put your child to sleep, put a topical antibiotic Ointment on the wound, Cover the wound with a large bandage and and use adhesive tape around the bandage.\n\nChange the bandage in the Morning and continue this process for a few more days.\n\nIf you do not see any improvement, call your Physician for a consult. The Physician will examine the child or call in an Antibiotic to your local Pharmacy.\n\nGood Luck.................. Billy\n\nParent with Medical Training.

Just my 2 cents\n\nMake sure he doesn't have a hidden infection.  A lot of parents just look at the teeth.  Make sure you lift his lip up and look at the loose gum tissue.  It can take a month or more to develop an infection, he could develop a little lump.  If it happens then take him to the Dr. \n\nAbout the advice above.\nBaby root canals are not like adult root canals.  Just because the tooth will fall out is not a reason to not do the standard treatment.  We do these things for a reason. Some people think we just want to scam you, If your child looses a tooth pre-maturely his jaw, in this case the maxilla may not grow enough,  Hell with todays diets it's hard to get them to grow as it is.  It pisses me off when people make up stuff.  \n\nGood Question

He just needs to wash his face.  If you shave down there it could be the irritation from rubbing his face against you or any soaps, perfumes, powders you might have used that day or right before that he could be slightly sensitive to.  I highly doubt it is an STD.  If it blisters and shows a more red appearance then you might want to see the doctor, but for now use an good facial cleanser...just treat it similiar to acne and it should go away.  Good luck!

Possibly birthmarks but you should have a doctor check them out.

It sounds like psoriasis....have him use cetaphyl heavy cream or cetaphyl lotion on it. Also have him use the cetaphyl cleanser on those areas also instead of regular soap. Regular soap will make it worse. If that does'nt help after a couple of weeks he should go to a dermatologist.
