My son is 18 months old. This very morning I took my son in for his routine check up. I asked his doctor, the very same who he has been seeing since birth, about a few red spots that showed up on his tummy, diaper area, and back. She really had nothing to say about it. So I wasn t concerned. Now it is nightime and I just put him to sleep. He doesn t have fever. Has not had any fever at all the past week or so. But while he was in the bath tub right before bedtime, I noticed even more red spots on his back. No where else. Just more on the back. They do no seem to bother him. He has not had a fever or shown any other signs of illness. What could these dots possibly be? They are small red spots, not raised bumps.
