My 3 yr old daughter has red itchy areas allover her face and shoulder. Pediatrician thinks it is poison ivy or sumac but it is more blotchy than in a line. I have been using cortaid cream and giving Benydryl at nite. It has been over a week and the rash is still there and is spreading. It did not blister just red and spreading. I do not want her to have permanent scaring on her face. What can I do?

PS my daughter is from Korea and has dark skin if that matters.
