Hand in hand: This has been known as "pudic erythema": a reaction to emotion/embarrassment, usually.

So, there is a correlation.

Accepted Answer

Immune rash: The immune system does odd things. Kids who are teething have slightly activated immune systems, and that can cause non-descript red bumpy rashes on the chest or diaper area. Viruses can do the same thing, and kids who are teething catch a lot of viruses. Strawberries and other foods can cause a contact irritation in the diaper area when some is mixed with the poop. But no, it's not always viral.
