What Do Itchy Bumps On The Arms Indicate?
I have a patch of bumps on my arm today, they look like bites, but I am not sure. I have sensitive skin and have to use non-perfume detergent, etc. This area itched very badly on Friday night, and today I noticed these bumps. They each have a dot at the top center. I have a photo if there is a way to share it

Hello,
It seems you have developed an allergic reaction to something.It may be also due to an insect bite. I would advise you to get yourself checked by a skin specialist. Meanwhile you can take Tab Avil. If it is an allergic reaction, it should decrease by a day or two. Avoid using any harsh soaps on the area and keep it dry.
I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write.
Thank you and wishing you good health.
