Follow up appointment

Today was Sydney’s appointment to follow up on her rash.  Her pediatrician said that since some of the bumps had pustules on them, she wanted to make sure there was not a fungus or bacterial infection so she took a swab from one of her spots to send off for tests.  She prescribed an anti-fungal ointment to use on her spots just in case there was something going on.  The pediatrician said that the bacterial swab should come back in a day or two but the fungal one may take a few weeks.  She did not seem concerned about the rash being contagious.  We go back on Monday for Sydney’s 6mo well baby so we will follow up with her then on the status of the rash.
