My 4 year old daughter has little pimple looking things on her legs what is this?

i do not think its chicken poxMy 4 year old daughter has little pimple looking things on her legs what is this?
Hives maybeMy 4 year old daughter has little pimple looking things on her legs what is this?
I am going to say she is allergic to something, maybe the laundry detergent or a new food? I know we are all having problems with this right now in our family because of the change of season. You may want to try some children's Claritin or some other allergy medicine. I also use a hypoallergenic skin cream (Cetaphil) twice a day for my son and daughter. This usually seems to kick it pretty quick. If that doesn't start clearing it up in 5 to 7 days or it looks like it's getting worse take them to the doc, they have prescription medicines that work better. Good luck!


PS I just thought of something else.....it's not poison is it? Does it itch?
maybe an ant bite if they itch.
Little pimples, unless your doctor says otherwise.
Possibly ingrown hairs? Since she's still young I'd doubt it, however there is something called pseudo-folliculitis. In laymans terms it's an inflammed hair follicle. A light exfoliation product can help. You need to use a product that exfoliates as well as hydrates such as something with a medium to high concentration of lactic acid. This will help take off all the dead skin while the lactic acid will help hydrate the skin at the same time. I know this works for teens so I'm not sure about the risk of any irritation for childrens skin. You can ask your family doctor or the pharmacist and they should help you go in the right direction!
Most likely they are just a form of eczema, so just be sure to lotion her body every day to help them disappear! I have them too, on my arms and sometimes my legs. They come only in the dry seasons, and will disappear if I apply lots of moisturizer.
It could be a wart.
It could be an in-grown hair.
spider bites. eczyma.
if they are not pink they are probably hives





if pink or red it's probably just an unknown rash that kids get all the time





but as you said it looks like zits it's probably chicken pox


ask your son if he itches





take him to doc asap if rash doesnt clear up by tommorrow


(if it is a heat rash it will spread until he gets cooled down)
it could be a number of things. Staph, simple rash, warts, etc. Only a doctor could tell you properly.
for an awsome answer, post a pic of it. a ';pimple'; could be anything, we need to see it first.
allergies hair pimples best check with doctor to be sure.
It could be ingrown hairs or maybe even warts. My son had small warts over his legs when he was little. The warts all fell off eventually. If you are concerned at all, take her to the doctor.
A pimple or a blocked hair follicle.
It may just be a heat rash?
that is how my chicken pox started.


jsut keep looking on her body, it usually will spread from legs to stomach.


if they are red, with whitish blister-like things in the middle, it is chicken pox.
it can be as simple as a rash . or it can be hyperkeratosis it will be very small pimples on the tops of her legs and on the tops of her arms but to know that for sure you will have to ask your doc. my son has this he is 4 1/2 yrs old the doc said it is hereditary . also he will have it for the rest of his life.
