General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi
Your son may be having history of allergy. ( using inhaler for bronchospasm is an indicator of that). Some content in water in water- park may be causing allergy in him. It could be chlorine or any other bleaching agent. The moment he comes in contact with that allergen he is developing rashes, which is a form of allergic reaction
You can apply calamine lotion ( local anti-histaminic), if it does not subside then you can use oral anti histaminic.
Best thing is to avoid allergen for some days.
