rash???

[Gavin&Brent'sMommy]

Gavin has a lil rash on his back, above his diaper... it's red, and sorta raised a lil, and feels well sorta "rough", not really just not smooth like his skin, any ideas? Or know any websites I could go to, to compare & figure it out? Ty

Sounds like contact dermatitis

I'd wash the area real well, and put some hydrocort cream on it, just a tad. If it's itchy, ask the pharmasist how much benedryl you can give.

ty, it looks different now, even more red

does not look like those pics, but now he does not seem to like it if I touch it

I'd still guess it's something he got into, because it is centralized. I'd wash it, and just be gentle, try not to go too much outside the area, so it doesn't spread.
Any chance it might be from a bug bite? Any one area more prominant than the rest?

lemme take a pic... I'll post it in a while tho, he's sleeping, on me LOL

Does it look like this? Sounds like the same thing DS had for a week or so & mysteriously disappeared as mysteriously as it appeared in the first place.
