A virus, for example
by: Baby Help Line

Hi Melanie!

(Beautiful picture!)

Regarding your son, the cough and red umos could indicate a virus. Lots of viruses seem to result in strange bumps or spots. Has he had a fever?

Of course they don't have to be relates; he could have a cough due to a cold and the bumps due to for examply being sensitive to some detergent or similar that you use.

If the symptoms get worse or don't disappear, within a couple of days I'd suggest you take him to a doctor. Cannot be to careful with our little ones...

Hope he's well really soon,

Paula
