Hi,
Your rash could most probably due to an insect bite hypersensitivity reaction. But the rash could also be a bacterial infection.
Diagnosis could be confirmed only after proper clinical examination. Empirically, you can take an antihistamine tablet along with the application of an antibiotic ointment.
I request you to consult your dermatologist if you do not get any improvement in a week.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Siva Subramanian, Dermatologist
