Dr. Xie Zixing
A child’s cough accompanied by red spots around the eyes may be caused by the following factors:
1. Exposure to allergens, such as pollen or animal dander.
2. Influenza or a common cold (wind-cold pattern), leading to fever.
3. Conditions such as allergic purpura or immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Prompt medical evaluation and active treatment are recommended.
