Hello, my Baby is 14 months old, has ear infection and started antibiotic 3 days ago. He had fever for 2 days, but today he woke up with no fever. But is crankier that last couple days, and crying all day long. Now, he has red spots behind ears, on his neck, forehead, chest and back. Also tiny ref bumps behind his ears. What could it be? Thank you

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
You description suggests that may be due to Measles infection
Usually preceded by URTI and the rash appears on the 4th day as the fever subsides.
This will pass off within a week.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
