What Causes Red Pimples On The Bottoms Of Legs And Ankles?

Yesterday I noticed a couple of really small red pimple type spots on my son, I would even say they looked like mini blisters. I thought it may have been down to sun exposure. But this morning he now has them all around the bottoms of his legs and ankles. I don t think they are chicken pox as he doesn t have them anywhere else and they don t seem to bother him. He s 21 months old.
