Brief Answer:
Hives

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I have reviewed the images and gone through your query.

She seems to have hives. I suggest you continue with Cetirizine 5mg/5ml. Give 5ml instead of 3 ml. You may give it once a day. I also suggest you to use a soothing lotion e.g Calamine lotion to calm down the rashes.

Hope I have answered your query.
