She has these pink little patches about the size of eraser caps from her collar all the way down past her breasts to just above her belly button . She says it only itches when someone touches it and her school is about to start up again and her uniform exposes her collar bone and i dont know what to do. I got her an appointment with her pediatrician but thats a week after school starts so any diagnostics?

It sounds kinda like psoriasis. The doctor would be able to diagnose it. But good/bad news is that if it's psoriasis there is a change in diet that is really effective. But it is kinda restricting that is the bad part about it. Good luck! And I hope she starts feeling better.

My guess is psoriasis or discoid excema. Get her to the doctor for informaion who knows more about it than I do. If it's excema, try tea tree oil, it really helps with mine.

Maybe it's ringworm. It's usually white circles that itch. At least that's what I remember but it's been awhile.
