Hello sir. It is most likely infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir. Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concern for your grandson.
The lesions you described most likely fit into the clinical picture of generalised pustular eruptions. These are infective in nature. However, i would like to see the picture of lesions if you can take a snap and upload them.
More over please upload all the reports of blood investigations done recently.
If reports are not available , please undergo following tests.

complete blood counts , ESR and plasma glucose fasting level
urine routine examination.

Antibiotic therapy can be planned after seeing the lesions.
Please revert back with the reports and image
Thanks and regards
