What Causes Red Spots On Back And Earache In A Child?
Just noticed spots on my 7 year olds front and back -- red spots with white top....almost looks like tiny scrapes. No fever. Some sneezing but not much. No real cold symptoms. Has complained, without vigor about earache once or twice and sore throat once. Tonsils and Adenoids have been removed.

Hi,
I understand your concern.
The red spots with white headed on your 7 year old boy 's front and back are due to skin infection. Please send a photo of the red spots to me for further evaluation and a more specific advice.
Keep good local hygiene, wash with water and antibacterial soap. Apply antibiotic ointment locally (e.g. fusidic acid ).
If no improvement, consult further with dermatologist.
Wish fast recovery.
