Skin Rashes - Ankles and left hand
Hi, my 5 month old daughter has got a few rashes on her skin since 3 weeks. She weighs around 6kgs.
- 2 are dry patches on her ankles, near the folds
- one is on her left forearm, looks like an insect bite but is larger in diameter
I've attached a few pics for reference, please advise if this can be treated at home or needs a doctor's check-up.
