What Do Round Rashes On The Body And Swollen Ears Indicate?

My son is 11 yrs old and have had Lyme like allergic reactions on whole body and had to hospitalised as simple antiallergic medicine didn t work. There he was given heavy antibiotics and injections. There was circles on the body with red boundaries. First of all his ear was swollen, but there was no sign of insect bite and in diagnosis and test ,no cause could be ascertained. No food allergy was found. I want to ask, was that a tick bite ? It was happened in October, 2016. Can it happen again after treatment. What precautions should we take and what should he be given to improve immunity. Thanks Sir

Hello,

Seems inflammatory response to underlying circulating antigens in the body.

Precautions to be followed on my side:

1. Avoid exposure to dust, pollen, bugs.
2. Regular intake of medications as per the consultant guidelines.
3. Maintain hydration with plenty of liquids.
4. Balanced nutritious diet to combat any sort of infection.
5. Discuss scope of monoclonal antibody therapy in the case with your treating physician.

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