Hello, Welcome to the HCM. First of all I would like to know that if he is still on only breast feeding or he has started weaning.As besides of viral infection ,other cause of rashes at this age can be allergy to any new food products (wheat ,rice) or cow's milk or some type of top feed. Or else it could be eczema.Since these rashes have to be seen in person to evaluate the cause .You can also upload the pics of rashes here and discuss further.As first the cause of rashes has to be ruled out then it can be treated properly. Regards, Dr.Maheshwari
