What Is The Treatment For Itchiness In The Thighs?
Hello. My husband was working today the whole day outside and at night he comes home and feels something itchy on one of his thighs. When he looked at it, it was a small rash with a little red bubble in middle. When he squeezed it, blood started coming out. At first I thought maybe it was a tick bite but still confused and no idea what it might be. Can you help me? Ruslana

Hi,
You may be right,it may be insect bite dermatitis. Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.
I would suggest...
- antihistaminics
- antibiotics
- steroids in tapering dose
- apply antibiotic cream on the lesion
I hope this would help you.
Thanks.
