Request for Medical Guidance on Child’s
It appears that my son has developed multiple small reddish spots on his back, chest, and face.
I am currently giving him:
Caladryl lotion (for application)
Montair LC Kid syrup – 5 ml once at night
I have already given these medicines.
Please guide me if any additional treatment is needed to help remove the spots. I believe it is an allergy, but I am not sure what type.
Earlier, he also had a cough and cold.

Mouth breathing when awake
My 10-month-old baby breathes through his mouth when he’s awake and playing, but during sleep, he closes his mouth and breathes through his nose. He was sick a 5-6 times in the last 2 months, but for the past 10 days, he’s fine — no cold, cough, or fever. Should I be worried about mouth breathing during awake?
