What Causes Fever With Red Dots Under Eye?
my son is 5 yrs old, he has been sick for 3 days, we took him to the doctor and he said he should be fine in a few days and that he does not have strep throat.
he has had a fever, and he has little red dots under his eyes and just threw up- what do you think is wrong with him.

I think your doctor may be right, in that he will most likely recover within the next few days. However, some viruses have the tendency to linger, so it might be a good idea to take him in to the doctor once again to confirm that he is on the road to recovery. Occasionally, what doctors think to be a virus has another, more significant problem such as a bacterial infection. Hence, my advice to see the doctor again.
