What Causes Red Bumps On The Upper Body While Suffering From Cough?
Hello. My son is 2. He started coughing yesterday but ran a fever for two days before that. When he coughs, he coughs almost non stop for 20 minutes and he’s been coughing up a lot of clear phlegm. And when I went to change him for the night, he has little red bumps on his chest, shoulders and upper arms. What is causing this?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Well depending in your baby symptoms it seems to me like a viroses. Anyway my advise to you is to regular check your baby for temp. I will suggest to use aerosol therapy for the cough because it helps. About the red spots you say they may be due to temp he had before. just warm baths and nothing else.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
