Hives?

Anyone can tell me what this itchy skin irritation on my baby's face? It started yesterday afternoon with very little patches red thingy on her cheeks and near her eyes, her face looked swollen and as hours passed by, this morning this is how it looks now. Some say it is dupang or hives in english but I am not sure what it is. It concerns me if my baby has something unusual in her skin or in her general condition because nobody can help me around here except myself and my husband. Hope she'll get over this redness soon!

hmm.. ang dupang anne kay di man ingana nga gagmay. dagku man sya ug labhag. sa nawong lang ni deden na? wala sa lawas? usually, sa lawas man ng dupang mogawas. u better call her pedia kay basin allergies na nga kinahanglan ug prescription. take care!
