Please observe the kid to find out the substance he is allergic to and avoid that substance in future.Even though it doesnt seem that he ate something , it might be anything that can cause an allergy.You can consult your pediatrician for anti allergic medications.
Once found the allergy causing substance , you can opt for desensitization.
Take care.
