Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi

Your son seems to have developed viral skin rashes .
Such a skin rash occurs due to any body infections in the form of cold or cough .
Rashes may persist for as long as the infection is there .
Orsl antihistamines are required in most cases along with topical steroid application.
See your nearby dermatologist for proper assessment and treatment.
