Now what

[hallowhead79]

about 4 to 5 months ago I have noticed red bumps on my ankle didnt think anything of it well, 5 months later and 2 doctors that have no clue its all over my hands bottoms of my feet up my arms and spreading highly itchy and all my scars have turned red and into bumps that itch too. I have taken benedryl claritin creams drinks and im lost now its spreading up to my hips and shoulders no exagerating i probably have 700 or more bumps any suggestions not contagious my wife doesnt have it. Please im tired of not sleeping because im itching its to the point of me itching until they rip open nothing comes out no puss or water.


This discussion is related to itchy red bumps?.

Hi

Did the Claritin and other oral antihistamines improve the condition?

This sounds like an allergic reaction however the trigger appears to be unknown. If you have had previous allergies then this may be likely another allergic reaction. I would suggest a skin biopsy if the diagnosis remains elusive and if the skin rash does not respond to the medications. The skin biopsy will be able to ascertain if an infectious process is involved also. This way oral antibiotics may be administered.
