What Causes Itchy Hands, Cough And Heavy Legs Post Treatment For Hives?

My 8 year old son has had a fever for two days now. Yesterday it was accompanied by hives and stomach pain. After a trip to Urgent care last night we gave no answers but they gave him a steroid and benadryl to get rid of the hives. Today he is complaining of itchy hands, his face is really flushed, he has a pretty bad cough, and keeps saying his legs feel heavy. I don t know if this warrants a trip to the ER or back to Urgent Care but I am getting really worried.
