Heat Rash? Allergic reaction?

I'm no doctor, but my kids have had chicken pox.. they don't look like pimples, but more like little droplets of water on the skin. Sort of clear filled bumps. Of course, they burst if scratched and then scab over. Have you changed anything in your clothes detergent? too young probably to have gotten chiggers... Roseola tends to spread but has a high inexplicable fever before the rash appears. I don't know. I'm assuming you googled rashes, right? Good luck.

I've looked at all sorts of pictures of rashes and I thought it was heat rash from similar pictures. I was his age when I had chicken pox so I don't remember personally what they looked like but I always thought they were more blister like than pimple like and his aren't blistery for sure. The scars I have from chicken pox are much larger than his little bumps. I've googled and yahooed and have nothing definitive. I guess I'll just wait and see.

I have that same Ikea table in my bathroom.

We got two! One is in our bedroom with the tv on it and the other is now next to that same chair on the other side of the living room. Our regular coffee and end tables have a pine top and the bottoms and legs are painted black. That color matched well!

Almost completely gone by this morning. Back to the doc and it's not chicken pox. More than likely a reaction to something he came in contact with.

Glad the little man's feeling better. Ironic -- today, I picked K up, and she's got a similiar rash on her chin, neck, back, belly, chest and arms ... all above the waist and itchy. She's soaking in Aveeno right now, will get a dose of benedryl before bed (to help cut down on the itchies) and I'll re-evaluate in the a.m. She's had sensitive skin all her life and breaks out in a rash a couple times a year from something neither her doctors nor I can figure out.
