Have Sports Induced Asthma And Actopic Dermatitis. Could This Cause Scar Leaving Bumps That Burn While Running?
I am 5'6 and I weigh 160 (female). I have a history of sports induced asthma and actopic dermatitis. I have these red bumps on my stomach, back, waist line, upper legs, and arms. They are not itchy and they do not burn. However, when I run, my torso and legs burn. It started out as one bump on my leg with a black center and then spread to the other spots. That original bump on my leg grew, dried up, and left a scar even though I never scratched it. I have had the chicken pox before.

Hi there,
Thanks for your query.
From the information provided, you are apparently suffering from allergic problems. This includes allergic, exercise-induced asthma, as well as, atopic dermatitis which is due to sudden changes in temperature (called thermal-induced allergic dermatitis); or, cholinergic dermatitis.
Running or severe physical exertion causes sudden change in body temperature, leading to bumps' formation.
A regular daily intake of anti-histaminics (such as levoceterizine + montelukast) and an anti-cholinergic drug will certainly give you relief.
Consult your doctor and apprise him of my opinion. I am certain that he will agree with me, order required tests, and- based on the reports- will prescribe suitable/modified treatment as advised.
In case of any further queries, revert back to me THROUGH DIRECT PREMIUM QUERY (Paid), addressed to me personally. You will receive- almost immediately- my response in great details.
If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE all doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.
Fond regards and have a nice day
Dr. Rakesh Karanwal
