Thank you, Well after talking to some other people we think we have it figured out. He was mowing the grass the nite before the bumps come up and got into Fire Ants, and after a friend said something about it looking like Fire Ant bites we both were like O Yea thats it. Those Fire Ants are little monsters! Thanks again
Hello,
Without examination,confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be folliculitis,contact dermatitis,rash due to friction rub with clothes, dermatitis (atopic, contact, allergic) or excessive sweating causing sweat dermatitis.
Your friend may try calamine lotion on the rash.He should also maintain hygiene and try to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting cotton clothing. Also use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove.Avoid any kind of cosmetics.He can also use a barrier cream with zinc oxide paste or calamine lotion or a mild steroid cream like dermacort on the rash. If the bump is itchy,he can take some antihistaminic like benadryl or Claritin.
If the lump/rash persists then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.Erythema nodosum has to be ruled out.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how your friend is doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
