Suggest Remedy For Bumps On Body And Itching Around Heels

My 4 year old said he was getting a pimple on his chin. Nothing there. He had a fever that night. The next morning a bump appeared on his chin. The following day it looked like more bumps. Now as night set in he is complaining about his heels itching uncontrollably and can t sleep.

Hi...this seems to be a pyoderma or a viral exanthematous illness. 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. Meanwhile for fever you can give paracetamol and wash the area with mild soap and water to reduce the irritation.
