Suggest Treatment For Small Sores On Arms Originated From A Bug Bite
My Daughter is 6 years old and has had for about 6 months some small sores on her arms. They may have originated from a bug bite but now they won t go away and at times seem to be worse now looking like cigarette burns. No weeping. I have no idea what it is and we ve tried every otc medication I could. Any ideas?
Heavy moisturisers which are specially meant for such conditions can be used. If it doesnt help, your dermatologist may prescribe topical steroids
Use a medicated gentle cleansing lotion for bath like cetaphil cleansing lotion. Wear cotton clothes.
Avoid allergens like pets/ dust etc
Hope this helps!
You may revert back after 1 week or earlier if you have any other question.
Good luck!
