Paige has battled with eczema since she was a baby but this spot was different. It was interesting to see the difference of opinion in the comments. <br /><br />http://thepreemieexperiment.blogspot.com/2008/05/excema-or-ring-worm.html<br /><br />On a side note... even though my blog is devoted to discussing the long term issues related to prematurity, the eczema post still gets the most hits. It's been a year since I did that post and I still get at least 1 email each month asking about that topic.ThePreemie Experimenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15882375368535807238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7675087351939177300.post-29201406946634421142009-05-11T08:28:00.000-05:002009-05-11T08:28:00.000-05:00Eczema and dermatitis are becoming big issues amon...Eczema and dermatitis are becoming big issues amongst the children I know, and parents fret over the correct treatments thereof. However, on a lighter note, I am reminded of a few years ago when children and rashes were a MAJOR topic of conversation for us new moms. For some odd reason, I was viewed as the Encyclopaedia-of-Rash-Knowledge. One day, we were gathered together talking when a mother suddenly noticed marks on her child's leg. <br />"What do you think it could be?" Various answers: scarlet fever, chicken pox, reaction to washing powder, stinging nettles... <br />When all eyes turned to me, I piped up, <br />"It could of course just be that it's a hot day and he's been sat on that scratchy carpet playing for ages." <br />Sure enough, after the kid had run around for a while, the marks faded!Jabulanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12847825459654555235noreply@blogger.com
