Is It an Allergy Rash, Hypersensitivity or What???

Hello ladies: I have a 61/2 mos old boy and I'm very concern. He has developed a terrible rash, on his little butt that at this point I'm not sure what it could be.

It mildly started about 2 mos ago and I took him to the pediatrician and she said to use hydrocortisone and if it continued she thought I would eventually either have to get a hypoallergenic diaper or use cloth diapers. I originally had some diaper changes and finally decided to go back to what he has been using since...

Itchy Ears & Head: Eczema? Allergies? Help!!!

My 6-month-old daughter has a case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. By day, she is a little angel. By night, she is an itching and scratching terror!!! Although her day naps are peaceful and uneventful, she cannot stay asleep at night. She wakes up every hour or so scratching so hard that her ears and forehead turn red. This only happens at night. When she awakens for the day, her skin looks fine and doesn't have the tell-tale rash and redness of eczema that she has behind her knees and at her inner elbows. My wife and I have been to 10...

Re-occurring Rash -- Maybe Allergy?

My 6 month old has a TERRIBLE reoccurring diaper rash. It is red, inflamed, and sometimes even turns into an open wound. It breaks my heart! He got his first diaper rash like this at 5 months after taking antibiotic Omniceph. Never taking that again. Well, then he was having some seasonal allergies and congestion. We gave him Ceron DM for the congestion, and he got this horrible rash again! We stopped the Ceron and replaced it with Benedryl. The rash went away...then stopped the benedryl and it came back! Maybe the Ceron didn't cause it,...
