Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. It could be any viral exanthematous illness. But as you quote them as red and spreading - the possibilities are Hand Foot Mouth disease/ any other trivial viral exanthem. I suggest you use calamine lotion as its giving results along with oral antiallergic like Hydroxyziine or Cetrizine.
