What Does Rash On Cheeks, Arms And Thighs Of 2 Year Old Indicate?

My 2 year old son has a rash on his cheeks, tops of his arms and thighs. It is red and warm to the touch. I lt dosn't seem raised just blotchy red patches. Do you have any idea what this could be? He had a low grade fever but other than that has been fine. Thank you.
