Acne-like rash on forearms of my toddler

I have a 14 month old toddler and she has developed a rash that is red with acne-like bumps on top.   She does not have dry skin.  It has now developed on both forearms and no where else on her body.  The weather has been quite humid for the past few days around the time it developed.  She has had this rash for about 4 days now.

Hello,
From the symptoms it sounds like folliculitis. Folliculitis is the inflammation of one or more hair follicles. The condition may occur anywhere on the skin.

Please keep the area clean and apply some topical antiseptics. Also wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove. Avoid any kind of cosmetics. Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful. In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed. Please consult a dermatologist in that case.
Hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries. Warm regards.
