I have problem with my kid. He is 9 years old. He had some problem with his lungs. We went to a hospital. He was feeling better after that. But in a couple of days I saw something red on his neck. In a closer look I have found out it is a rash. He was receiving amoxicillin in hospital. Can it be amoxicillin allergy?

It can be amoxicillin allergy. A lot of kids have problem with amoxicillin and other penicilins. It can cause rashes, nausea and diarrhea. My kid had the same problem. But he was vomiting for a few days. I went to a doctor and he told me that it is amoxicillin allergy. But there is a lot kind of allergies. You must go to a doctor first.

Hello there,

Unfortunately you will probably have to take your doctor to do allergy test. Although this doesn’t look pretty because all those needles and children usually get scared because of it, it isn’t painful. If your child is allergic to some type of medication you really need to know this because allergy symptoms can be pretty severe sometimes. Coughing, swelling and similar troubles are just beginning, and if you don’t react on time your child could stop breath.

Anyhow, my nephew is allergic to aspirin and he needs to avoid all medications based on the similar content. This can be really tricky sometimes. I hope that your child has only developed some rash because of some minor reason, rather than allergy.
