They start out red kind of blister then pop with a little fluid, I ve tried Hydrocortizone and triple antibiotic my fiancé says there flea bites possibly.

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,

As per your case history, you are having papular urticaria. My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild topical steroid cream like mometasone cream on the lesions twice daily.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetirizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.


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

Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
