[Bhupinder Kaur, MD]

Hello,
Spongiotic dermatitis is acute eczema. The most commonly attributed causes of spongiotic dermatitis is that it occurs due to allergic reactions and it can come about because of an allergy to food, insect bites and even drugs can cause this condition. You need to take antihistaminics for itching, topical steroids and oral steroids which are available under prescription and plenty of emollients for your skin. If the symptoms persist then please consult a dermatologist.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
