Thank you all.

I will take him directly to a dermato... to save time and risk of H1N1 infection at the PD clinic :) :)

Bring your child to Dermatologist directly..our baby has skin problems too and the one managing him is a Dermatologist not Pedia...

It should be in Dermatology clinic for sure, But in HMC Dermatology they will ask for Referral before treatment. So you need to go to Health centre or Pedriatric Emergency, get the Referral from Doctor and bring it to Dermatology clinic in Rumaila Hospital.

Pediatrician first, skin problems are common here with kids. I guess it has something to do with the water and weather of course.
