also sometimes rashes follow high fever or bacterial or viral infection as his immune system begin to red of that infection and while improvement there is immune reaction occurs that result in appearance of rashes and i think this is important may cause his symptoms ...........
thats great from you to have illustrations about your son health .......
you can use local creams as hydrocortisone cream and antihistaminic syrup will help improvement with treatment of the cause if there is infection
