A member asked:

7 year old son has developed pink/red spots on face and chest. a few days ago he vomited through the night but has since appeared well. should i worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Facial rash...: A rash can't be diagnosed without an exam. It is good that your son is acting well; however, to determine the cause of the rash (petechiae from vomiting, maybe?), he should be seen by his pediatrician.

Dr Munshower and another doctor agreed
