Suggest Remedy For Itchy Bumps On Leg

About two days ago I saw a red, swollen bump on my leg. Just thinking it was simply a mere spider bite, I thought nothing of it. A day later a white bump in the middle of the red had appeared. Over the past day it has neary triple in size and still itches. I have no idea what this could be. Please help!

hi,
thank you for putting up your query on HCM.
as per your history, you may have insect bite reaction or allergic reaction.
my treatment advise would be:
1. take a course of antibiotics preferably of cephalosporin group for 5 days.
2. you may take tab levocetrizine twice a day.
3. also, you may apply Betnovate n cream twice a day.
4. if pain present, you may take pain killers like tab ibuprofen.
consult a dermatologist nearby for getting antibiotics prescribed.
wishing you good health.
thank you.
