Hi, Your son has rash on face, hands and legs for more than a month, as you said. There may be itching also. And the rash may be papulovesicular and there may be eczematisation. Treatment is given, but with poor response, right? I feel that your son may be having atomic dermatitis. There may be itchy reddish and edematous plaque and patches on face and extremities. You consult dermatologist to have firm diagnosis. Atomic dermatitis may be caused by many allergens. Suspected allergens should be avoided. Cows milk, eggs,fish, nuts...etc. should be avoided. Contact allergens like house dust, housedust mites, perfume,grass, pollens.etc. may be kept in mind. Antihistaminics, steroid in tampering dose, application of steroid cream or tacrolimus point.etc. may be considered. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.
