Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 3 year old grandson has developed bright red marks on his cheeks and chin. It resembles wind or cold chafing. He has not been outside and it came on him suddenly around 3 pm. He seems to be perfectly fine otherwise, running and eating well. He did tell me his cheeks hurt. His dad just called and said he now has small red bumps on his forearms.

General & Family Physician, Dr. Varinder's Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As your child is not having fever it is allergic response to some food. If he is having fever and cough cold then it is viral fever. Give syrup cetrizine to child and visit a local doctor for evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
