Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your son rash seem to be related to hives.
This is an an itchy rash that can appear anywhere on your body.
This rash comes and goes and can last from hours or days.
It is caused by an allergic reaction.
You may use antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10 mg.
I also suggest using a steroid cream such as Betametasone cream.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
