Suggest Treatment For Small Itchy Bumps On The Legs , Arms And Wrist
Hi. In bed last night i noticed a few itchy bites on my legs, arms and wrists. Tried not to scratch, so i went to sleep. Woke up at 2am very hot and had more itchy bites now on my hands, ankles, neck. I went to back to sleep. I had a shower i the morning but put no soap on the itchy bumps, and took two nurofen. Soon after now i feel nauseous with a headache

Hello, it appears from your history that you had insect bite hypersensitivity reaction.
I would adv you to take a good soothing agent like dermocalm lotion on the lesions twice daily, and take an antihistamine like tab Cetrizine 10 mg at bedtime.
Review after 5 days
The lesions should be subsided by then
Thanks
Take care
