help, please.UPDATE WITH PICS....FINAL UPDATE.

my son has a rash on his arm. it looks like two big human bite marks (which i know they are not), anyone know what it could be?? he only has two on his arm, no where else, no itching, its not scaley. im so embarrassed to call the doctor, i have been there 3 times already between ds and dd being sick. im going to try and take a picture.


update, im thinking i may have to eat my words. these look more and more like bite marks to me. oh i hope dd did not do this to ds. we have been here all week sick he is sick with pnumomia. so it cant be anyone else. or it may still be a rash. im so confused.

UPDATE:: the rash has faded alot. now could it still be ringworm???? does ringworm fade???

FINAL UPDATE ON LAST POST.

I dont have much experience with rashes but to me it looks like bite marks. My DD has biten my niece more times then I wish to count and that is typically what the bruise looked like and would eventually turn darker/purplier before fading.

oh god. no ringworm, how the heck would he get that??!!!! first he is diagnosed with pnuemonia on friday, my dd is diagnosed with a double ear infecton yesterday, and now today he breaks out with this rash. oh god. if its ringworm, is it normal to only have two circles, and its not ichy or anything like that.

It totally looks like bite marks. You can count the teeth in each picture! Ringworm wouldnt be that consistent.

Looks like bite marks to me too - especially since there is a separation between what would be the top & bottom teeth.

It looks like bite markss. i'd be srprised if it is ringworm. My husband is a wrestling coach and I've never seen rigworm like that. If it does spread then it could be ringworm. Ringworm spread quickly.

How do you know they aren't bite marks? It looks like it to me. My daughter was bit on her tummy at daycare and that's almost exactly how it looked. A day or two later it turned into a little bruise...

Re: help, please.UPDATE WITH PICS.........

im just so upset. its so much to happen in one week alone, not to mention, my dh just called and YELLED at me saying "you should have brought him to the doctors, you always sit on your hands with stuff like this", which is so untrue. i always take the kids when they are sick. i just wanted to wait incase it is bites marks i didnt want my ped to think i was a complete maniac. i feel like such a bad mom right now.

Ringworm is a perfect circle. this is definitly bite marks. The baby has too much of a space between the 2 sets of marks or imprints. Sorry your DH upset you. Feel beter and you are NOT a bad mother! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

It looks like Ring worm to me. Its not always a perfect circle. I had in in high school and it looks also identical to that, it was broken up.

I would call the Dr in case it is......

Ringworm usually is very small...I have had it once or twice. You can get it from pets I think!

It looks like bites to me, but I think you should go to the ped. just in case. I have no clue if ringworm fades.

it looks like bite marks too me. i also don't think ring worm goes away on it's own. i think you need to treat it with some type of ointment or cream.
