Hello I have been experiencing very large welt/bumps appearing only on my right arm and occasionally on my legs that are extremely itchy. My husband and I share a bed and he hasn t suffered from anything which rules out fleas and bed bugs. I haven t been tested for allergies since I was younger which stated I wasn t allergic to anything. I haven t changed any medications or anything out of my normal routine. I m concerned. Please help thank you!
The possible diagnosis of the condition based on the description of the lesions is papular urticaria or insect bite hypersensitivity.You should try to use mosquito nets as much as possible. Topical mild steroid cream like mometasone can be applied over the affected area. Oral antihistamines like fexofenadine may also be used . Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned therapy. Regards
