Is Buttock And Thigh Lumps With Soreness And Stinging Being Correctly Treated?
My 10 year old son has 12 or more red bumps on buttocks and thighs that look a little like insect bites, but are in various stages of size. The bigger ones are sore and , when touched, are sting-y. I put Epsom salts and baking soda in the bath for a quick soak, then he showered and we put on some 2% diphenhydramine HCL. Any comment or better Tx appreciated.
