This is so sad! Palmer has been sick lately and this is what he woke up with yesterday morning. He came in and said "Mom, I have polka dots on my face." Since then that is what he and the boys call them. Palmer couldn't go to school and Lincoln told him it was a good thing, because Lincoln didn't want his teacher's to see Palmer's polka dots on his face. Poor Palmer.
We went to the Dr. and he had no idea what it was, he asked another doctor, who also had no idea what it was. We are on every medicine known to man! Honestly a ton of medicine!
He woke up today and it was worse. I am hoping that it is because it is going to get better. Anyone ever have this happen? The other weird thing is it is only on his face.

My sisters little girl got a rash just as she was getting over a cold. Her Dr said that some viruses will do that. Nolan has weird skin that gets irritated easy, certain soaps and laundry detergent cause it sometimes I think, and he had a rash when he got back from Disneyland. I gave him some children's Claritin and it cleared up. I hope Palmer's goes away soon. Good Luck!
Megan had that happen once, but it was an allergic reaction to penicillin. And it got way worse before better.
Oooo, that is no fun! It just might be a reaction to having a bad sickness, unfortunately, nothing you can really do until other symptoms occur.
Just make sure he is not allergic to any of the medications.
Let me know if there is anything we can do to help!
no idea, but it is cute that he calls them polka dots. hope it fixes itself soon.
That's a mystery to me. We've had a lot of rashes, but never one like that. I hope that it goes away soon. If you find out what it is let us all know. I'm curious.
My friend also had it in reaction to penicillin:

I have another friend who gets a rash like that out in the sun. Doctors haven't been able to help her.... poor guy! I hope it doesn't hurt.
Hmmm...I've seen red dots similar to that on my kids' bellies, but nothing ever came of it...Maybe it's just a weird reaction to something he ate or touched. I hope the worst is past for you...:) I would be worried if he had a fever or swelling, but if he's acting fine, then it's probably just a virus that will go away on its own. That's all from Dr. Lynette. :)
Crazy! I hope he gets better soon!
This just happened to Conner but it was all over his body! At first I thought it was Roseola but then after taking him in, it was HIVES! Th doctor said it was a virus and that he was getting sick and sure enough the next day he was throwing up with the flu! That's crazy that it's just on his face though! Sorry! I hate stuff like this! Good luck!
