Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The pigmentation and swelling can be because of the allergic reaction secondary to the drugs you have taken. Nothing to be panic, you can stop those medicines particularly cefixime and azithromycin and you can continue cetrizine and deflzacort. You need to consult a good general physician or a pediatric physician and get it evaluated.
I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
