Pediatrician,  's  Response
Thanks for posting your query at HealthCareMagic. I am sorry that your daughter is not well. The red dot you are talking about is probably is a subconjunctival haemorrhage. It is not a cause of concern and should resolve spontaneously in around 7 days. It often happens on forceful coughing though other things may also be responsible. Do not worry about it.

I hope that your query is resolved. Feel free to revert back in case of further queries if any.
