Sharmin:
Dear Neha,
I wonder if your child is reacting to antigens in the blood.
Antihistamines may help reduce this.
Also, was your child phenotype or genotype tested prior to beginning transfusions to endure he is receiving the best matched blood?
Your child should be tested for antibodies so that the blood bank is aware of what antigens your child is sensitive to and they can be avoided in future transfusions.
Best,
Sharmin
