Just a couple days ago my 19 month old had a rash that went from her armpit to her belly button. They were small, pale red dots that trickled down like drops of water. She was scratching at them too so I know they were itchy. She had even flaked the skin off directly under her armpit where it doesn't get as much air. Here's what I did to treat them and within half a day they were gone:
While filling up the bathtub I tied a chamomile with lavender tea bag to the end of the spout so the water ran over it as it filled. Then, once the tub was filled I put it directly in the water and let my baby soak in it for a bit. Chamomile and lavender will calm the redness and itching like an antihistamine. When she came out I applied a drop of lavender oil and waited a minute before applying on top of that an oatmeal/colloidal silver cream for eczema by nutrovena. The only ingredients in the bottle are oatmeal and colloidal silver.
Within 3 hours the symptoms were completely gone.
