Itching Below Breast, Back And Inner Thigh, Have Red Bumps, Applied Rubbing Alcohol
some parts of my body itch like underneath my breast , parts of my back and inner thigh. I scratch and then I start to see some little red bumps start to show it almost looks like when you scratch after ants bite. The itchness happens at intervals not all day long. I noticed that I scratch mostly at night and I have been putting rubbing alcohol after I scratch. Can you please help!

Hi I am Dr Manoj....
The kind of problem you are getting may be just a simple urticaria or a fungal infection which is very common in the areas u have mentioned....don't use alcohol....you can use any anti itch lotion during day hours and antifungal cream daily at night...try to keep these areas as dry as possible as friction and rubbing may aggravate the lesions..
