Hello...I have recently noticed itchy, little bumps on my left elbow....the bumps are very small, and the same color as my skin... when I put lotion on it, it does help with the itch, but the little bumps still haven t gone away. Any help you can give me for this I really appreciate...... Thank you.....Mary
Thanks for consulting me at virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
It seems due to some allergic reaction but without seeing its always difficult to traeat skin lesions. I suggest you to apply corticosteroid ( Over the counter) ointment to apply 3times a day. Take Claritin per oral once at night for 3days.
After 3days if you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile. You can also attach Lab reports and pictures with direct question.
May you get very well soon and have a wonderful time ahead. Please don't forget to give your valuable feedback and five star rating, to help me assist you in a better way. Click at 'I Find This Answer Helpful too'. Please, write a review about your experience with me.
