Follow up suggested: From your description he may have impetigo which requires a longer course of antibiotics or a different antibiotic. An allergic rash can be itchy and is treated with an anti histamine, or he may have both infection and allergic reactions. A virtual appt is available online and photos may be uploaded of the rash.
