acute urticaria
Detailed Answer:
Hello. Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com. I have read your query. I understand your concern.
As per details, it seems that your son is suffering from a condition called Urticaria. Urticaria is an allergic condition of skin characterised by itchy red colored transient eruptions over body. It is of two types - acute, chronic and acute on chronic. When duration of the disease is less than 6 weeks, it is known as Acute urticaria.
In acute urticaria, the most likely allergic reaction occurs to recent infection, any food, seasonal change, drugs, pollen grains etc.
I would like to advise you following investigations :
1 ) Complete blood count
2 ) Serum Eosinophil count
3) IgE levels
In such cases, I prefer to advise oral antihistaminics like levocetrizine for atleast 2 weeks. You should visit your doctor so that he can examine your son and give you a prescription for him. You can share my opinion with him. I hope it helps.
Take care
