Hi, It would be more helpful if you post a picture of the rash.. Nevertheless, if it is just a rash or dots as u have described, local application of lactocalamine lotion or Atogla lotion two to three times a day for 3 days can help to decrease the irritation and scratching by soothing the skin. But if scratching is so intense leading to excoriation or wound, the the above remedy won't help and you will have to consult a pediatrician Thank you.
