Brief Answer:
Continue Omnacortil

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the images.

The rashes appear to be due to allergic reaction to some sort of material he is in contact with.

Continue Omnacortil for a a week. This will cure them.

If they reappear after a week, you may have to get him investigated with blood tests like Absolute eosinophil count and Serum IgE levels. These tests help to identify the underlying cause for the rash.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
