by sharkn1414, Nov 25, 2007 02:11AM

MY BABY HAS A BAD RASH ALL OVER HIS FACE , ARMS , CHEST AND HEAD . WHEN WE SEEN THE DR HE SAID IT WAS BABY ACNE .. BUT WHAT I FOUND ON LINE ABOUT BABY ACNE ITS ONLY ON THE FACE . HIS EYES DUE TO THE RASH ARE STARTING TO SWELL AND BUMPS ARE STARTING TO LEAK FLUID .. DOES THIS SOUND LIKE BABY ACNE ????

I would take him back to the doctor, or to a hospital if his symptoms get worse. My son has had childhood acne all his life and it is not like what you're describing. The symptoms you describe sound more like a serious allergy because he has a rash and swelling. Allergies can also cause breathing problems so i would get a second opinion straight away. I hope he gets well soon. xx

ditto Loiloi. You didn't mention how young your baby is, but any swelling around the eyes needs to be seen. Let us know!
