Question
My 5 year old daughter has had a rash around her mouth for two months.  It does not seem to bother her, but I am concerned nonetheless. Her pediatrician doesn't know what's causing it and told me to put any type of lotion on her.  For the past month I have mainly been applying Vitamin E oil on her, but it has not improved.  Do you have any idea what could be causing this, and how I can clear it up?

Answer
Hello Amber,

Rashes can be promoted by so many different things.
You might look at the soap you are using to wash her clothes in and try something more natural without dyes and laura sulfates.

It might be candida or yeast. If this is the case some Bifidophilus Flora Force internally in very small amounts and Silver Shield Gel topically might help. Getting her off all sugar an fruit juice can also help.

It might be that she needs a blood purifier as the skin is the largest organ and the body will detox through the skin if it is not able to through the colon/kidneys.
Making sure she has plenty of water. Half her weight in ounces is a good start.
The using a blood purifier like Red clover blend might help.

You might find a good herbalist in your area to have them muscle test to see what is going on.
