Brief Answer:
May be an urticareia or hand foot mouth disease

Detailed Answer:
Hi...Bu what you quote I feel that it could be a Urticaria which is presenting like this or an Hand foot mouth disease which has happened 406 weeks ago.

But, skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. Wish your kid good health.
