Hello,

Is there any itching? Possible causes are:
1. Insect bites
2. Utricaria
3. Scabies
4. Staphylococcus infection

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Apply Dermadew aloe cream locally twice a day for five days. If there is no improvement, please consult with your dermatologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
