My baby has patches on his body?

Question

Hello! For the past few days my 1 year old son has had red patches all over his body that appear and disappear after drinking his milk or water or eating. We have not changed anything in his eating habits. The Benadryl doesn't seem to work?

Hello Ma'am, thank you for your question! You seem to be reporting the appearance of plaques following the consumption of any food, including water. It would be relevant at this point to try to find out if there is a particular food that would cause this problem, if any. I would suggest keeping a logbook, where you record what your child is consuming, and along with the occurrence or non-occurrence of the plaques, as well as their severity, if possible to determine that. If after 7-10 days it is impossible to find out what is causing the problem, if it persists, or worsens, you will need to see a doctor to get the right diagnosis and start the right treatment. Hopefully I have helped you, I am still available if you have any further questions! Tom Samaha, pharmacist
