A member asked:

Warm red bumps appeared on my daughter's face after a diaper rash. it looks as if they're spreading. what is it!?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Impetigo in children: Diaper rashes that present with red bumps and spread to other parts, could be secondary to a bacterial infection with staph. Another condition is yeast infection. Did the diaper rash cleared? Are there members in the household with skin infections? Try bactroban (mupirocin) ointment 2% on the lesions. If no better within 24 hrs, visit your pediatrician.Strict hand washing before and after taking care of baby.
