Medical Case Details:

Hello

This is the case of one of my patients, came this morning into my clinic. Her mother reported rash on forehead and body only in the evening and during the night. Since 2 days now.

Rash not notable at the moment of visit.
Already asked for complete blood count and eosinophilic, and stool examination for ova/parasites.

Already put on antihistamine (loratadine) at bedtime, and Prednisone shot in the afternoon (half tonight, and the other half tomorrow).

What else?

Thank you in advance.
Dr.Albana

Hello,
It could be some form of allergic rash.

You have to wait for CBC and stool report.

Only antihistaminic drug might be sufficient for rash.

Nothing else further work up needed just now.
