What is this?

Max keeps getting what looks like hives or a heat rash the past 2 days. Yesterday Max had them on his legs and today is even worse. It's on his arms and legs and looks bad. Tell me what you think. My vote is heat rash but what's your vote? Whoever figures out what this is gets a nickel and a hug!

  1. My son got what looks JUST like that. It was an allergic reaction. Heat rashes are tons of tiny red bumps. If you go here this is what heat rash usually looks like https://journeytocrunchville.wordpress.com/2008/09/06/prickly-heat-rash/

  2. Heat rash comes with lots of tiny red little bumps...this looks like an allergiv reaction...my son and daughter have it as well from time to time....
    It will go away i a few days.... my daughter was even covered from top to toe ! If it is not to bad you can leave it, for my daughter the gave medication because she was totally covered in it.... if it is getting worse, just step in at the doctor, he can give something for it, and than is is gone really fast....
    When they are so small you often don´t know what they are allergic for... has he tried new food ?
    New washing powder ?
    HUGS !

  3. I'm so excited that someone other than friends and family also read our blog! No he hasn't had any new food and I did change soaps, but that was 2 weeks ago. The doctor wasn't in yesterday but the nurse thinks it's a virus that has been going around. Thanks for the help!

  4. The other two are right. My son use to get heat rash when he was an infant even when he was in the house and I had to dress him only in a onesie. They were tiny red bumps. An allergic reaction is usually tiny red bumps also my son was allergic to apples and pears :( but but can eat them now. Have you checked back with the Dr. yet?
