My granddaughter has broke out in red spots they almost look like misquto bites but there not and she is swelled up could you tell me what it might be?

Red spots: I certainly want to help but need more information. Red spots could be a viral exantham ( rash) meaning that the virus is leaving the body, or could be heat rash or could be chicken pox...Does she have a fever? Suggest tylenol (acetaminophen) and then a visit to pediatrician.
