Itchy Bumps
by superfabulous, Apr 27, 2009 11:25PM
I have small itchy bumps that have appeared on my arms, legs and now chest. They're not red and they're not clustered together. They're kind of sporatic and they itch constantly. Any ideas on what it might be?

Without examination confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be contact dermatitis,hives,insect bite,fungal infection or scabies.
Take non-sedating antihistamines such as Cetirizine(Zyrtec) or Loratadine(Claritin) to get symptom relief. Sedating antihistamines such as Chlorphenamine(Benadryl) are used at night to get urticaria control. Short courses of oral cortisone or steroids are taken for short periods (one to three days) to settle more severe symptoms.Also apply calamine lotion and a mild steroid cream on the bumps. If the symptoms persist then pls get it evaluated from a dermatologist.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Kind reagards.
