little red bumps
I am asking this question for a friend...she has little red bumps all over her back, legs, and other parts of her body. She says they itch very bad and sometimes worse than others. Can you tell me what it might be? What can she do about them?

Hello,
These kind of itchy bumps can be due to contact dermatitis, heat dermatitis ,sweat dermatitis or scabies. Ask her to take some Benadryl and apply calamine lotion on the itchy bumps. She can also take steroids or apply steroids after prescription from a dermatologist.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
