I've taken my 8 month old to the DR. and he doesn't know what they are...we've ruled out chicken pox, hand-foot-mouth and also alergic reaction to new foods. There are usually around 20-40 bumps and they have no pattern. They start out as red splotches (dime sized) The center then raises up and becomes a semi-hard white bump (pin-head sized) It continues to raise up into a little fluid filled blister which then bursts and gets crusty and then goes away. Each individual bump goes through this cycle in about 36 hours. The entire situation takes about a week to resolve itself, although sometimes there are a few of these bumps all the time. He doesn't have any other symptoms with them other than irritability and interrupted sleep. Has anyone else had experience with something like this?

My son has eczema and that happens to him when his skin has an allergic reaction to something. I may be wrong since I don't have a pic. This happpens to my son when I use regular laundry detergent or fabric softener on his clothes or if certain foods get on his face when he's eating.
