Brief Answer:
Please upload an image.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through the details and understand your concern. Most often such symptoms are due to viral infections although an allergic component can be associated as well. I would insist you to upload an image so that it would be easier for me to understand the situation.

As of now, you may apply calamine lotion or any other emollient / moisturizer topically for relief. Also give cetirizine syrup.

I would await your response.
