Should I Be Concerned About The Rash?

My 21 month old has a bright red rash with "C" shaped spots on his trunk, extremities and neck. He has no fever, but has had diarrhea for 3 days. He vomited 3 days ago once, then again yesterday once. Should I be concerned about the rash? He seems fine, except a little tired. He is still playing normally.

Hi...looks like a toxic urticaria or a sort skin allergy. it may or may not be related to the diarrhea. But as you say the kid is playing normally I can say that you can be rest assured.But, skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.
