Find an adult and go to a doctor. Why aren't there any adults around??? Are you run aways. Find an adult fast and get your sister to a hospital. She might have caught something or have a allergic reaction. Why are you asking Yahoo anyway. Go find an Adult now.

sounds like an allergic reaction...but you dont want to treat it as such until an adult looks at it...i hate to speculate b/c i dont know if she has allergies or any medical conditions...I would try to get an adult on the line...and if not you may need to take her to the ER if you cannot find anyone....but before anything, you need to get an adult for help if no one is around, find someone to call, and if not, try to get on the phone with a doc or nurse some offices have # to call after hours good luck!

Haven't your parents left an list of people you can contact in an emergency?? It's probably just an allergic reaction, but call an adult anyway.

Try an oatmeal bath. And some benydril. If any of the rash is oozing its poison ivy and stop scratching

The only way to tell is to go the doctor. Or contact your parents or an adult that you know

Could be poison ivy or oak.Or maybe she is allergic to something. She should switch soap and shampoo to a hypo-allergenic one and find out if maybe she is allergic to a certain material in her clothing. She should see a doctor.

You live alone? Tell your sister to take a cool bath until there is a parent around

Who is in charge? Are you older or younger? Call a trusted adult.
