Brief Answer:
Looks like a spread of staph from son

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You seem to have gotten staph infection from your son.

You should get an antibiotic course from a local doctor for the staph sore throat and probable boils that you have on palm. We suggest Penicillin group of medicines if not allergic to. YOu need an oral course for 5 days since one member of the family is already suffering. Along with your doctor can prescribe some adjuvant pain killers as well.
