re: Anyone know what this rash is???

Possibly chicken pox or some type of bug bites...bed bugs perhaps? Really could be any number of things, he needs to go to doctor ASAP.

No it won't.

Quoting Rette Mich:" I was told it can take benadryl 72+ hours to really work. Was I told wrong O.O"

I've always had it work pretty much over night for any issues I've ever had..
Then again, my DS had an allergic reaction and it took like four days for his spots to go away with benadryl and claratin.

That stuff you blot on and it dries this peachy color?

No I thought that was pretty much only for chicken pox?

Oh I'm sure Walgreens has it. I've never had to purchase it, but I'm sure it's there. You could also get some oatmeal bath which will also ease swelling and itchiness.

Quoting boobook:" It loos like it could be chicken pox but other pics look like hives.. If you have baking soda run a ... [snip!] ... bath and add that in and in a bowl make a paste and apply that to the rash it should help relieve the itching for a little bit."

   

I agree with the oatmeal baths. They helped my daughter heaps when she got a rash. I just poured the oatmeal straight in to the tub so my daughter could play with it. But it did make a big mess, so if you didn't want the mess, just put the oatmeal i to a delicates bag, or tie it up in a wash cloth and put that in the tub.
