Hi,

I can understand your concern for the itching and blotching after taking medication. There can be multiple possibilities of the itching and a close physical examination is necessary to rule out the exact reason for same.

The only precaution you must follow is not to touch, pinch pop or squeeze any of them other wise it can get infected and can cause complications.

If I were your treating dermatologist then would have prescribed you to apply medium potency steroid cream application of fluticasone cream. You can additionally take antihistamine benadryl or loratadine by mouth.

Take care.
