Dermatologist 's  Response
Hai
thanks for posting your query.
the whole problem looks like insect bite reaction. but, it is pedrus dermatitis which is called as blister beetle dermatitis or bite due to blister beetle.
you may try corticosteroid cream twice a day for five days.
if it recurs protect yourself. insect proof windows like mesh will help
