Suggest Medication For Bumps Appearing On The Stomach

Hi, Last week I noticed that my stomach started itching really badly. When I started it, it revealed bites/bumps scattered all over my stomach. I thought it was dry skin at first and applied some lotion, but the next day or so bites/bumps continued to spread to my waistline. I woke up a couple days later to intense itching of my neck and back. I don t believe it is bed bugs, as I searched my mattress and did not find anything.

Thanks for your question on HCM.
I can understand your situation and problem.
In my opinion, you are mostly having allergic skin reaction.
Itching, redness and spreading nature of rashes suggest possibility of allergy more.
Allergy can be due to anything like badsheet, pillow cover, inner wears, soaps, shampoo, night clothes etc.
So better to change your bad sheet, pillow cover. Wear cotton clothes at night.
You may need anti allergic and antihistamine drugs.
You may also need steroid containing cream on skin lesions.
Since all these drugs are prescribed medicines, you need doctor 's prescription for them.
So don't worry, you will be alright.
I find this answer helpful
