My son had a little rash on the back of his legs and arms, the doctor said it could be because of his clothing, detergent or sensitive skin, I am putting on a moisrturising cream- and it seems to be helping.

thanks, he does have dry skin it could be just irritated. I'll put moisturizer and see if it helps.

Yael concerning the pink rash that your son has, Zalman Aryeh had the same thing on his stomach, it could be from the detergent that you are using. Try to change the detergent that is what I did and the rash went away.

If you say detergent is the problem then a non bio detergent should be used.
Changing from one biological detergent to the next might not work.

My son once had that, it ended up being prickly heat from the hot summer. I would take my child to the pedieatrician if any kinfd of rash surfaced and I did not know what it is. If it is prickly heat cornstarch works best.

My daughter has a rash on her lower back and it sometimes bleeds can that also be a heat rash? Only when she gets up in the morning with a wet diaper

it could be, my daughter use to get diaper rashes that bled and I needed a special cortizone cream b/c she had sensitive skin, but I would take her to pediatrician.

yael take a sprayer from a water botltle and attach it to a hydrogen peroxide bottle, and spray it on the rash- this works like a miracle.

it was just prickly heat like shayna said, and it went away on its own.

Hi I just read, if you put a clear glass cup onto the rash press lightly and thru the glass u can see it fade u do not have to be conc. However if u press and the rash doesn't fade or lighten then it could be very serious sign of meningitis c"v .Just thought I would share this info
