It may be heat rash. It does not have to be summer outside for babies to get heat rash, though it usually occurs in the summer.
Heat Rashes: Summer months can beckon the heat rashes or the appearance of small red bumps on the infant's skin. The sweat depositing in the neck fold creates an ideal environment for the prickly heat bumps on the skin. This often spreads around the chest and back and up around the ears and face.

Another possibility is something called stork bites: The name may sound quite funny but stork bites actually refers to the birthmark that appears on the baby's back and neck. Technically speaking, this painless red pinkish spot is not actually a rash but rather a collection of blood vessels inherited from the mother. In most toddlers, this mark will go away in a few months without any intervention or treatment.

If you are concerned you should get it checked.
