Rash, Itchy, Like Mosquito Bite, Prescribed Antibiotic Benedryl, Had Symptoms Of Cold. Cause?

my son moved into a room and suddenly started to get a rash. They look like mosquito bites and are itchy. They were raw looking so doctor said treat with antibotics and benedryl. they got better but now there is a new load of them. I did not see bed bugs and neither has he. We looked everywhere under mattress, walls etc. What else could it be? He also had cold symtoms and has for over a month.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some allergen or some thing bite present in his new room causing this problem.
Bring him to his original room and observe the rashes.
Meanwhile continue Benadryl or give Cetrizine tablet.
Ok and take care.
