Child Has Red Spots On Back, Torso And Cheeks. Earlier Had Virus. Cause?
Hi, my 3 year old son has small red spots, started on his back and torso a few days ago and today he has some on his cheeks. He has no other symptoms at all, as far as I can tell...eating, drinking, no temp and happy in himself. He did have some sort of virus two weeks ago where he was emptying his bowels 4/5 times a day, loose stools . GP checked him and said its just viral and will pass, which it seems to have. Just not sure what has caused these spots and if I should be concerned.
