Pic of Sydneys rash...What is this?
Its not too clear, but they are dry flaky/scaley round things, on her arms and legs mostly.one on her face.
Allergic reaction? Just dry skin? Excema?

IDK, but that is what my DS looks like when he's having an allergic reaction. ETA; I didn't see that you said they were dry and flaky. Maybe just dry skin?

Re: Pic of Sydneys rash...What is this?
I know I get this when the weather changes & the heat goes on; usually on my thighs/upper arms. I noticed the same exact thing on DS's thigh the other day....looks the same as your DD's rash...I just make sure the skin is moisturized & it seems to lessen.

It looks like that, but I had ringworm as a teenager, This is like 15 spots on her arms, and like 10-12 spots on her legs..thats not ringworm.
I swear its a reaction to something, because she still randomly throws up after some meals ( no noticable pattern though) and is on Lactaid milk now.

And some of the spots are reversed...a red center with a white border. It is so weird.
I'm gonna call PED for peace of mind Monday, just looking for opinions.

Re: Pic of Sydneys rash...What is this?
DS gets similar spots, diagnosed as contact dermatitis. He has very sensative skin and got it when I put a new outfit on him before washing it. Or I got a hand me down from my sis who washed it in regular detergent. He has very sensative skin so I have to still use the free/clear detergent on his (and our clothes). I was told, on the arm like that would most likely not be a food allergy.
Have the ped check it out. Hope it's minor and goes away soon.
