My son (17 months) has red blotches on his face that have white centers (like little pimples). The rash appeared on Monday afternoon, it's now Wednesday. Last week he had a fever from Thursday to Sunday, along with a cough, runny nose and loss of appetite.

Hello Ma'am,
Unfortunately it is impossible to adequately assess the cause without a medical evaluation. Many children's conditions can manifest a rash and can be contagious to varying degrees. If possible, decreasing contacts and frequent washing of hands and surfaces. As long as his general state is good and that he is eating (even if it’s less than usual), just keeping a watchful eye on the situation is enough.
I hope I’ve been helpful, please do not hesitate to contact me should you have other questions.
