<s>[INST] My 4 month old daughter has had a rash all over her body for about a month now particularly on her chest and under her neck and i have been to the doctor a couple of times with it, the first time they said it was heat and this time they said it could be viral or mild eczema and gave some immolient cream, which ive been applying but its getting worse and her skin is turning leathery. but heres the weird thing, it doesnt bother her in the slightest!! shes the happiest baby ive ever known, and ive always thought ecema was itchy and painfull? the other thing concerning me is that she has a growth under her skin by her right eye (quite large) the consultant thinks its a strawberry birthmark under her skin (its not coloured) but i cant help wondering if its all connected? ive also noticed the past few days her hands & fingers are blacky/purple in the morning and fine the rest of the day. I dont mean to sound paranoid, im not an OTT mum as i have a 5 year old who is rarely ill, but my mums instinct is saying this rash is something else but i dont know what!! [/INST] Hello!yes the doctor is right, its childhood eczema. Childhood eczema is not that painful but yes its scaly and itchy at times but not that much. You should follow your doctors advise. The growth you are talking about is probably strawberry hematoma, and it has got no harm to the baby. And what you are talking about the hands is pretty normal. Babies can't adapt quickly to cold temperature, they have constriction of blood vessels in hands during cold so it doesn't get oxygen for some time and gets blue. </s>
