Infant With Rash Around His Left Eye, Cheekbone Area. What It Could Be?

Hi, my son is 19 months old and he s woken up with some kind of rash around his left eye, on his cheekbone area. He hasn t had any different foods, and I haven t used any different powders to wash things in, so I don t think it s an allergy to anything, and it doesn t look like eczema , any ideas what it could be? Thank you!

children thermostat is not developed till 24 months
variation of temperature leads to it
avoid using mustard coconut walnut groundnut and soya oil
use petroleum jelly
keep room temperature between 25 drgree to 40 degree
can apply calamine lotion over effected portion daily
if more rash can use mometasone ointment
all this will cover after the child cross 24 months age
