What Caused Recurring Rash On Both Legs Of My Child?

My 9 year old has a recurring rash on both legs, front and back, with some itchiness. He was given an antibiotic, which he finished, but rash came back same day he finished antibiotic. Any ideas? The antibiotic did have a warning about being in the sun. He has been outside to play.

HI
Well come to HCM
This could be hypersensitive reaction, you have not mentioned which antibiotic being given, because the rash could be due to that only, in my opinion this can be treated with Levocetrizine liquid the dose need to be adjusted according to weight, hope this information helps.
