Hello,

It may be due to allergic reactions. For that you can apply hydrocortisone ointment locally. You can give syp allegra after pediatrician consultation.

For fever you can give syp acetaminophen. Watch for symptoms like breathing difficulty, dehydration. Avoid allergens and harsh cosmetic products.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
