What Causes Bronchitis Like Cough?

My 3 year son has been fine, but has a bronchitis like cough this evening. We've all been sick so u expected it sooner or later. However, I just noticed 2 or 3 small round flat red dots on his body. Not sure if it's a viral reaction or not? Any ideas?

Hai... I think he's going through a viral infection as you rightly pointed out that many of you in the family had been sick. Red dots in the torso is also common in viral illnesses. If he's active otherwise except for cough & passing urine well...please do not worry about red spots. Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
