Suggest Treatment For Recurrent Bumps On The Body

For the past 2 weeks I keep getting bumps all over my body that look like bug bites and they itch really bad. After scratching them, the center opens a little bit and sometimes clear liquid comes out and forms a hard pale yellowish crust. Then I m ending up with small scabs. They keep popping up all over. I tried alcohol and nothing is working. I m getting very concerned. Should I get a blood test?

Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptomsof recurrent bumps on the body which could to be due to allergic reaction, bed bug bites, scabies, contact dermatitis and eczema.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to maintain proper hygiene and take anti histamine like bendryl. Avoid applying any cosmetic and apply only petroleum jelly . Consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may order skin test or allergy test along with blood test . Doctor may prescribe immunosuppressants along with antibiotics and anti inflammatory and corticosteroid ointment .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
