i have a recurring bump that comes up on my right fore arm. I know its not a bite at this point. its raised and red around the bump it gets pretty big at times. like if I scratch it. it itches like crazy I put hydro cream on it but it only helps the itching the bump stays for 10 or 12 hours? it only shows up every few days.
Hi. As per your case history you are having urticarial rash. My treatment advice is - 1. Don't scratch the lesion as it may worsen the condition. 2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-b cream twice daily on it. 3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
