My Poor Ethan

Last Wednesday I took Ethan in to see a doctor because he had a huge rash all over his body. The doctor thought it might be an allergic reaction to a new shirt he wore before washing it. I gave him allergy medicine and it started to get better, but this morning I woke up and it was all over his face, chest and a little on his neck. I called the doctor to tell him that his rash was worse and because he has no fever, sore throat, or flu like symptoms, he just told me to keep an eye on him. I wish I knew what was wrong with him! Nothing changed in his diet, soaps he uses, and he hasn't been outside a whole lot. I don't what it could be and it makes me sad to see him like this! If anyone has any idea of what this could be, I would love some advice.

Oh, poor guy.. It can be caused by so many things... get some hydrocortisone cream and rub on him.. in the am and in the pm.. that will help.. he could have eaten something that he reacted to as well.

That really does look like a severe allergic reaction! I would take him to an allergy specialist if it doesn't calm down and they don't find anything else wrong with him.
