A member asked:

My 5 yr old child has bumps all over his entire body they look like goosebumps what is wrong with him?

Many possibilities: If not having any "symptoms" (like fever or sore throat) then it is probably either an allergic rash or even keratosis pilaris. If sick, them check with your doctor to find out.
