Brief Answer:
Urticaria

Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thank you.
I am Dr kakkar (Dermatologist and Venereologist). I have noted your concern and I have viewed the image.
He seems to have Hives/Urticaria.
I suggest you to give him an oral antihistamine e.g Cetrizine once or twice a day, for a few days. In addition I suggest you to apply a topical soothing lotion e.g Calamine lotion to calm down the rashes.

Regards
