My 16 months old has pimple looking spots on her tummy around her belly button and then a few more up near her left side of the chest.. has has a fever.. went to the doctor and said just give her Advil for the fever.. he never saw the spots.. he just listened with a stethoscope out side her shirt. what is this? Do I need to go back to the doctor ?
Hi. Red colored rash like spots may be seen in some viral fevers. They go away once the fever reduces. If these rashes/spots do not go away once the fever reduces or if these spots increases then you may have to put it across to the doctor. Hope it is just due to a minor viral illness.
