Suggest Treatment For Rashes On Arm

Hi I have a rash on my arm that looks almost like bug bites but they re not and it s all over my right arm. It s also on my right foot. I try not to itch but it s unbearable. I went to a doctor and even she said she didn t know. So she prescribed me on these steroids to see if it helps. In my eyes I don t see it working I was wondering if you could give me some sort of answer. Please.

Hi.

The rash could probably be papular urticaria. But, the infective causes of the rash should be ruled out. You could apply an antibiotic cream for a week. But if you do not get any improvement, you must consult your dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

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