Hello,
* Sound in relation with intestine infection or possible autoimmune response of the body against internal pathology which may be nonspecific or certain particular inflammation of the bowel wall.
* When the CT is normal, there should not be a grave issue, but still I recommend following steps to be taken
- regular intake of plenty of liquids
- a bland, vegan diet
- local application of calamine lotion over the itchy bumps
- prescription of antihistamine and supportive antibiotic with proton pump inhibitor by your GP
* Follow up after 3 days regarding the progress of the issue.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
