Suggest Treatment For Itching Bump

My daughter has a red bump the size of a nickel. The bump is pinkish, red with white flaky layer. It does not hurt, but it itch. She s had the bump for 2 weeks and the size has increased. She has no allergies. She currently participates I. Gymnastics 3 times a week and is a healthy child. Please help as the bump is getting bigger and there are also smaller bumps, pimple size without pus that recently showed up around the large bump. Thank you.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi ! Good morning. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.

This could be simply due to some kind of allergy or could be due to some dermatological problem which could be known only by a clinical examination. Therefore I would advise you to take appointment with a dermatologist in your area and get yourself assessed properly for proper management. Till that she can have some kind of anti histamine drugs.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor/Dermatologist in further management of her problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.
Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing her an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
