Red Bumps All Over Body. Is That An Allergic Reaction? Why Are They Black Now?
Hey , well just a little while ago something unknown bit me & from then these little red bumps have been popping up , itching , then turning the ugly dark black color . I went to the doctor & she said that it was an allergic reaction from it . She gave me Claritin & prescribed me this ointment . The ointment has helped to stop the itching . But the bumos continue to turn black . I really want to get rid of these horrid marks . Please help .

Hi, Destiny,
Thanks for query.
It seems that you are bite by poisonous insect causing allergic reaction.
Due to toxin there might be some extravasation of blood from the capillaries gave rise to black discoloration.
Nothing to worry, continue with claritin tablet and local application.
Within a day it will be alright.
Ok and bye.
