Suggest Treatment For Painful, Red, Itchy Bumps On Different Parts Of Body
Every morning I wake up with small red itchy burning bumps on different parts of my body, after scratching them for a while they turn into one big itchy burning welt like bumps then dissapears by the next day. This has been going on for about a month or so now.

Hi
You seem to be suffering from a common problem called acute urticaria
In this condition patients usually have red and itchy bumps or rashes which appear in different parts of the body and they disappear after sometime.
It is usually associated with insect bites or sometimes with an infection in your stomach or urinary tract infection,throat infection or any other type of infection. It can occur with certain medications also
Therefore if you have any such infection you will have to get it treated. Once the infection resolves your rashes will disappear
Along with that I advise you to take a tablet of levocetrizine 5 mg at night for about 10 days and apply calamine lotion over the rashes
