      Thanks Joolz. :) At least we know it will eventually go. The problem now is, what it is in the garden that affected him. :doh:

      I hope your daughters friend gets over it quickly too, she must be quite frightened.

        Urticaria can be caused by, just about, anything. It could be stress, something she ate, a change in washing powder or other detergent, a bug bite, contact with plants or chemicals. It is a really hard one to pin down until it occurs again. Uncomfortable for the poor child but, fortunately, not dangerous. :)

          I hope he can work out which plant it is asap!It will be a difficult one to pinpoint that sheal if he as greenfingered as you:huh:x

          Thanks..Its had us scratching our heads,you mentioned chemicals,i read about latex and that can cause it so i was trying to find what hand warmers are made from as i know they was handling them whilst playing fri night :dunno:its so frustrating not knowing :gaah:x

          Hi loli,sorry i forget to ask tracy what they had perscribed her but she has been to our village docs today and he reckons it might be caused by bruising behind the spine :dunno: surely a bruise on the skin would point in that direction but there isnt one as far as im aware,the girls where mucking about fri night and falling about with pushing & falling etc so maybe the docs right :dunno:x

          All jabs are done zig..its a mystery! you should of been a doc zig,bed bugs and mumps i would never of ever given a thought too :)x
