Is It A Matter Of Concern If Child Is Having Red Spotches On Cheeks After Tonsils And Adenoidectomy?

Hello, my 4yr old daughter had tonsil &-adenoidectomy & ear tubes Mfri A. She's done extremely well w/barely any pain complaints. (only a couple times/day which popsicle immediately relieved) 1 ear has bled twice. Zero elevated temps, eating & drinking great. On regular Tylenol & Motrin every 3 hrs round the clock w/ prednisone & ear drops twice daily. Now her cheeks have red splotches. Look like a child w/ a high fever but her temp is normal. I asked her if anything hurt and she said no. Is this of any concern?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
This could be mixing kind of reactive phenomenon because of drug and disease and this is just nothing to worry this does not require any medicine and will come around, take care of your child and have nice day.
