My 20 month old son has developed a circular white oval on right cheek. He has allergies. What could cause it?

Do you have cats?  If so, it could be ringworm.

It is most likely  a sinis condition, perhaps allergy related. Decongestants will probably  help, but if it is as serious as you describe, you should probably see a doctor to validate this.

Sounds like either your kid has horriffic allergy problems or is suffering from spoiled brat syndrome... or one other, much worse possibility.  If it's the former, your doctor should be more careful about testing kids.  If allergies are the case, then your child should have more than an emotional response to eating vegetable, like breaking out in hives or pain.\n\nIf not allergies and your discription is correct, please watch Nanny 911.  You child may be spoiled because you cave in to his demands.  At some point, almost every child engages in a battle of wills with their parents for household control.  If the parents win, peace.  If the child wins, hell on earth.  Spoil the child, ruin his life.  If you care, you must win through persistence and patience (these will be repeatedly tested!!) in order for your child to function in a society.  Otherwise, expect to visit your kid in jail or a homeless shelter later (or support them until you die).  More immediately, a spoiled child may suffer from obesity and severe constipation if you both continue on this path (not to mention your own headaches!).\n\nNow the really dark stuff.  Has your child been molested or otherwise abused?  If this sort of acting out is not characteristic of your child, then you might want to (carefully, not giving the kid any great ideas about how to make your life more miserable in the battle for household control) check this out - particularly if a spouse or another significant other spends a great deal of alone time with the kid.  Kids don't know how to tell you this stuff (let alone most adults!), but acting out is usually symptomatic of something going wrong.  If you are the person abusing, then I have no sympathy for you.  Hell hath no fury as the hatred of your own children.

Sounds like chicken pox to me my daughter had them when she was about 3 and only had two on her face.I would take her to the doctor just to be on the safe side.

yes, and it sounds like sun poison..Have had it many times..It comes in different versions. Probably best just to keep him in for a few days and try some aloe vera on the bumps.

It is most likely a Candida infection (Thrush).  You must get yourself checked for diabetes.  Do not kiss your child and your other family members and do not share tooth brushes, cups and other utensils.  Retroviral illness leading to such a infection by candida is also possible, but the chances are remote in your case.  Nystatin tablets will help you and Nystatin gel would be required for your child.

It could be allergies.

The best person you should bring your child to see is a skin specialist or a drematologist. He will be able to tell you what caused the white spots. He may ask you a few questions like besides the white spots, are there any signs of sickness in him and so on. He may recommend a blood test to rule out any serious illness or it could be just a simple skin problem. So do bring him to see the specialist without delay. May God Bless your child that everything is fine with him.

It could be a heat rash, or chicken skin (not sure of the actual medical term but you can find it like this online) you might want to take him to a dermotologist.

Take her to the dermatologist to get an allergy screening done. It could be anything from pet dander to cottonwood to dead bugs.

Okay, this is going to sound disgusting, but does it look like a ball of pasta? Does it have a bad odor?  I'm not sure how old you are but I too had a period where this was happening to me all the time.\n\nIt still occurs every now and then (during allergy season primarily) but not with the frequency it once did. It's been said that it is a build up of plaque (the same that covers your teeth) that accumulates.\n\nJust keep up with the oral hygiene.  It will pass.\n\nIt's freaky, but it won't hurt you.

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

It's called thrush.  Sometimes babies get it, and it's a white film or crust inside the mouth.  It's treated with an oral rinse of nystatin.  Anyone can get it, though (not just babies).

Up to a year, most of the nutrition should be from ideally breastmilk or at least formula.  I wouldn't worry too much for now.  You might try other types of food, but I would stick to the essentials (Gerber stage 3 equivalent if there are a couple of teeth or so.\n\nIf it occurs for too long, talk to your pediatrician about it at the next regular visit.\n\nIf there is any weight loss or any serious concern, go sooner.\n\nGood luck!

sounds like an allergic reaction to certain foods.Watch what you eat when this happens and try to eliminate it from your diet.

Seriously, I believe I would take him to the doctor.  When I worked at dermatologist there was a lady that came in with big clear fluid filled blisters and they were some kind of bacterial infection and she had to take oral antibiotics.  If nothing else a doctor could probably give you a note to let him in school with socks only until it heels.  I really hope that he feels better.  Good Luck.
