Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I was working in the yard on Sunday and I scratched my arm on a fence . No cuts or abrasions at the time. Monday I noticed that in the area where I hit my arm there is a cluster of bumps. No color and they itch if I scratch them. They look as if they could be popped and release fluid. Since I did not know what it was, I have not popped them. The bumps are raised off the skin. The area is about this size of a nickel. Again, it does not itch or hurt. Prior to the branch I was in an area heavy with poison oak. But the rash has not spread. Any ideas of what I m dealing with? Thank you
Hi Hope this message finds you in good health. I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
It seems to be a allergic reaction to something that might have caused the bumps.Though the symptoms may vary in severity,they usually last for a few weeks. Taking anti-allergic medications should help. Nothing to worry about. I hope your question has been answered. If you have any follow-up queries,feel free to consult me anytime. Thanks,Take care,God bless.
