Brief Answer:
Scabies is likely possibility

Detailed Answer:
Thank you.
I have viewed the images. Seems like you have got scabies. Scabies can infect other family members too and that is usually the case. I suggest you all to apply Permethrin 5% cream. It is a single whole body application sparing face and left overnight for ar least 8 hours. In addition I suggest you to continue with the antihistamine. Take care.

Brief Answer:
Regarding scabies

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Ok. so how was the response then? did it resolve or has it continued the same after treatment? Scabies can happen again since it is an infection
Going by the images and your clinical and family history it does look like scabies to me.

take care
