Suggest Remedy For Red Itchy Spots On Stomach

I think I have been bitten by something a few days ago, I woke up with numerous red spots all over my stomach, some bigger than others, which are itchy. I ve noticed the bigger ones have black dots in the centre of them. What is this? Should I be worried?

Hi and welcome to HCM
It appears as if you have had a severe allergic reaction to the cream. Do not use it again.
If the reaction has not subsided or is spreading and itching you may need to visit the ER for a cortisone and antihistamine shot.
Apply a mometasone lotion twice a day for three days and once the reaction appears to get better reduce to once daily application for another 5-7 days.
Take an antihistamine- levocet /fexofenadine twice a day for three days and reduce to night time for a week.
anytime you experience burning you can apply a calamine and aloe Vera lotion.
For future reference as your skin is very sensitive do not try any new application or cosmetics without a trial as explained in th product.
Stay out of the sun for now, don't rub or itch the area and use a very mild baby soap or glycerine soap and normal water over the area.
