BRIGHT RED FACE RASH

by MOMMA REDD, Jun 27, 2007 12:00AM
Yesterday my daughter who is 8 months woke up with a light pink mark across both cheeks.  This morning she woke up and the marks were dark red.  The mark is about an 1/2 inch wide on the left check and the exact size of a dime on the right check.  It does not appear to be painful.  She is acting her normal self and has no fever.  I took her to the doctors and they are unsure of what it could be.  Please help us find out what this could be.

YEAH I WAS THINKING EZCEMA AS I WAS READING IT ALSO SO TAKE HER TO THE DOCTORS AND SEE IF HE RECCOMENDS YOU TO A DERMOTOLIGIST.

There are so many things that can cause this symptom. The 1st to come to my mind is Fifth's disease.

Could it be ezcema?  My son seemed to just wake up with it one morning and that's what it turned out to be.
