Hi
Thanks for being at healthcaremagic
I have reviewed the attached photographs and according to me your son is having insect bite hypersensitivity reaction.
If I were your treating doctor I would recommend you to apply cortisone cream on the red bump twice daily. It will usually start resolving in 5-7 days.
I hope to have answered your query and would be happy to clarify any further doubts.
