Suggest Treatment For Itching Red Bumps On Hands
I have a red rash develop on the top of my hands at various times. Small red bumps --not sure what triggers --it sometimes will itch, and if water touches rash really becomes itchy. The rash will last for an hour or so than typically goes away. Sometimes it feels tingly. I am not on any medications and have no known allergies or allergic to anything.

Hi.
As per your case history you are having allergic dermatitis.
My treatment advice is –
1. Avoid using any new products like soap or perfume.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-B cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine like levocetirizine for 7-10days .
4. Other treatment options are oral steroid and hydroxyzine given only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks.
