Red skin: There is no need to go to the ed but do try to go to the pediatrician's office after you make your appointment. If your baby is not in pain, is feeding well and not in any discomfort, you can probably just observe him/her closely as the redness may just go away on its own, e.g., turning red in the face when having a bowel movement.
