I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here, I could say that if your son is having some skin manifestation after taking the "Acetaminophen(Calpol) then this could be hypersensitivity reaction of this drug and this could happens after taking the "Acetaminophen" of course this is very but may happens, hope this information helps you, have a nice day.
