The dear doctor! At the child 8 months have appeared in a belly-button reddening and the plaques similar on allergic. Whether it is possible or probable, what is it allergic reaction? If is not present, what is it can be? Whether it is dangerous something? In advance thanks.

For exact diagnostics it is important to see character of rashes. The isolated rashes inside of a belly-button usually at an allergy do not appear. Probably it is infectious dermal process, therefore necessarily show the child to the dermatologist.
