Suggest Treatment For Fever, Sore Throat And Dry Skin

Just left a medical clinic with my grandson...he is 10. They said he had strep but he has no symptoms of strep throat....fever, sore throat, etc. He does however had what appears to be a dry skin allergy reaction looking condition all over his skin. They prescribed Benadryl for itching and a strong 10 antibiotic. He has no fever only the allergic reaction looking skin condition. The nurse practitioner said he tested positive for strep though. Just a little confused
