Hi,
Your son is having urticaria.
There may be many causes.
Food,dust,insects,cold,heat,physical and so on...
The culprit should be detected and removed...
Then he might feel better.
Continue antihistaminics for long time.
If it is severe, you may give short course of steroids.
He should be consulted by dermatologist.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
