Every time my son eats anything he gets this rash on his face, I mean anything!!! It is almost as if he is allergic to his own drool, or maybe his skin is so sensitive that anything with turn it red. He eats all kids of food, and this happens from everything from fruit and veggies, to dairy, to even dry foods, like cereal, or toast. Does any one else have this problem? Does any one know what it is? IS he allergic to everything... Or his skin real sensitive? Just so we are clear, he does not break out any where else on his body except his face like his lower cheeks and chin, any where the food touches.. Thanks!

Sounds like sensitive skin. If his face is wet all the time from drool and food and all, he'll get a rash from it.
Get some advice from his doctor on how best to deal with it.

It does sound like a sensitive skin. try putting some lotion on it. Cetaphil is wonderful. My 3 year old has eczema and severe food allergies. With a food allergy, usually the rash is every where. But check with the doc just to be sure.

When my daughter was born until about 2, she would always have rashes on her face. when I finally asked her doctor about it, she said that her skin was just sensitive and to put a little baby lotion on it.

It is probably just his drool. Those are places where moisture always sits, so it gets irritated. Talk to your doctor to be certain, but thats what it sounds like to me.
