Hi.
The soreness in the areas you have mentioned is suggestive of Allergic Dermatitis along with Allergic phenomenon in the nose. This can be genetic so both of you are having this.
The diarrhea may be due to gastro-enteritis and may need antibiotic cover.
The allergic part is taken care by the antihistamines. Take therapeutic dose of Vitamin A and D , this helps in good skin care.
I find this answer helpful
