Medical Dr.: Your dad needs to see his medical doctor first. Symptoms could be due to allergies but they also put the key to a systemic disease or a drug reaction.

Family MD or Allergy: The cough may be a sign of his asthma or there could be an infection. It is always difficult to diagnose rashes without seeing them, but this could be eczema.
