Hello, ma'am, How old is your daughter? Does she have any lesions elsewhere? Does she complain of pain, irritation or itching? Thanks for the feedback. Acetaminophen (Tylenol and other brands) can help relieve pain and irritation. Applying cold compresses and a fragrance-free cream such as Aveeno may also help, if the lesions are not running or the skin is not injured; the cream can even be kept in the refrigerator for a soothing effect Keep an eye on the situation, if it doesn't improve within a week or if other lesions appear in this area or elsewhere, I suggest consulting a doctor, as a precaution I remain available if you have any other questions!
