ivy before. It doesn't seem to be spreading anymore. I have had it for 5-6 days and started out in just a single line. Then as I itched it is spread a little. Neosporine has helped the itch and I have put calamine lotion on it as well. It is a little swollen
and also has little blisters but they didn't appear until after I started itching it. I have taken benedryl for the itching. Has anyone seen this before?
Nothing can be said with surety without a clinical examination. From the picture it seems to be secondary to an insect bite or trauma.
It could be eczema, sweat dermatitis, allergic reactions or dry skin condition.
You need to wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites.
Apply calamine lotion at the site of the lesions and see if it helps. You could take some oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine. You need to maintain a good personal hygiene .
Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, and calamine lotion may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin.
Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema. Keeping the affected area moistened can promote skin healing and relief of symptoms.
Wash the areas several times with fresh water and keep the site clean. Avoid sun exposure.
It would be advisable to consult a skin specialist for your symptoms and a proper clinical examination.
