Question

Why do babies get small red dots on their faces after a fever?

Answer

Small red dots on a baby’s face after a fever are generally symptoms of pediatric roseola or drug rash. It’s important to ensure they drink plenty of water and avoid catching a cold. The spots usually disappear within a few days. You can apply calamine lotion topically and give them children’s antipyretic syrup. Make sure their diet is light and observe them for two more days.
