| A few days ago Milo had some red spots under one armpit, looked a bit like heat rash, but since then it's kind of spread and got redder It hasn't spread to any other parts of his body, it's just under his armpit, and it doesn't seem to hurt him if I touch it or put cream on it, and he doesn't scratch at it or anything It's now more like a few patches of red rather than spots.. He doesn't have a fever or seem out of sorts in any other way. We have just changed his body wash, but he doesn't have any sore looking patches anywhere else - very confusing! What do you reckon it could be? |

| hmm - just had a look at him again and he's got little bumps/spots going down the underside of his arm and on to his tummy too, so got him an appointment at the doctor's later on today, just in case. Poor little man |

| Thank you The doctor reckons it's either impetigo or possibly eczema, we've got some cream, some antibiotics and a follow up appointment in case it doesn't get better It looks so painful, but it doesn't seem to be bothering him at all, brave little man. xx |
