What illnesses cause a rash on the face in children?

Anne asked:


He had a fever for almost exactly 24 hours with a runny nose and no appetite. The next day he’s back to normal with a little rash on the sides of his nose. Now today the rash is around the eyes nose and above the mouth.
It’s not raised and there are no blisters or anything. It just looks like a giant patch of red, dry, blotchy skin.
Any ideas what it might be?
It’s now less than 48 hours after the fever broke.
