Itching Inside Leg, Spots On Inner Thigh, No Itching, Hurts To Touch, Feels Hot. Related Symptoms?
Hello, I just got back from Alaska yesterday. On my 10 hr flight back home I remember the inside of leg itching a little like something just bit me, never did see anything when I went to bathroom, but when I got home to take a shower there was about 20 spots on my inner thigh that looked similar to a mosquito bite. They do not itch but hurt to touch and feel hot. This morning I found more on my butt ,shoulder, other leg not as many in number but spread out . I'm having other symptoms but have had them the whole two weeks I was up there so not sure they are related

hi the symptoms mentioned are typcal of acute urticaria.it is only due to allergens like foods,insect stings and dyes.it presents as wheals all over the body.in ur case you may have taken any food outside which may have caused this.it can be treated by injection hydrocortisole for immediate relief.use atarax 25 mg at night and alaspan in the day time ,and use calamine as soothing agent can cure it.it not cured within 15 days use oral predinisolone
