Hello,
Your son may be having prurigo simplex most probably. However, consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. There may be some triggering factors responsible for the prurigo lesions, like dust, pollen, silk, insects, soap or else. Antihistaminics like Cetirizine may be given till itch is relieved. Apply steroid cream like Mometasone cream on the lesions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
