What Causes Red Blotches With A White Raised Spot On Either Side Of Chest After Shower?

I ve noticed over the past few weeks that after I get out of the shower I have red blotches with a white raised spot in the middle. It s very itchy and only seems to appear on either side of my chest and top of my back, basically where my hair touches my skin. I thought it may be my shampoo until I got in the bath this evening, dipped my hair and they appeared again before I d used any products. What could it be? It s extremely uncomfortable

Hi,

It may be urticaria. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to apply calamine lotion on the blotches. Take antihistaminic like tab Fexofinadine 180 mg daily till the good result.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.

Regards,
