Frequent fever, cough and skin allergy
Since last 2-3 years my daughter is frequently suffering from some skin allergy(red color rashes mostly in leg) and cough followed by fever. Even she needs nebulization with levoline and sometimes with budecort as she feels difficulty in breathing during this condition. Her IgE level was high when tested 2 years back. No specific test was done after that but as per my observation she must be allergic to some sweets and cold. I have consulted many pediatrics. But I need permanent solution as my child has suffered a lot. She has become very weak in these 2-3 years. Please guide me with this. Regards.

Your baby's symptoms and high IgE levels suggest an allergic or immune related cause behind the skin issues and chest symptoms. First we need to rule out common conditions like eczema & allergies, but also careful watch for signs of rare immune problems. Some investigations may be needed to understand the exact cause
Next Steps
cbc with eosinophils, chest x ray if cough persistent, skin swab if lesions are infected even referral to immunologist if severe infections IgE > 2000 IU/ml and poor response to usual treatment
Health Tips
Focus on skin care, preventing infections and treat chest infections early
