DS was down watching tv after bedtime with us & suddenly started complaining of sore itchy skin. He has a huge patch of raw red rash on his behind & another large patch back of arm. His back started to look a little bumpy like a nettle sting. I did the glass test (using thumb pressure) as he was v agitated it looks ok. Gave him zirtek & calpol put on sudocream & he's now asleep. I'll check him in a while. No temperature.
Could it be a sudden allergic reaction ? He was out and about today in playgrounds gardens etc. he has no allergies that I know of he did have a reaction like this when he was under 1 after his first try of chocolate though and he had chocolate tonight but he has also had lots of chocolate during the 7 years in between.
Any advice would be grateful...
