Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi both u and wife are getting bumps at the same time can be due to food allergy.bee stings.change of drinking water .etc .the condition is called acute urticaria.
.both of u use antihistamine atarax 25 mg daily once at night.fexofenadine 180 mg in the morning and pantop 40"mg before breakfast and use of ivermectol-ab 12mg weekly once can cure it.
if not cured use short course of steriods.even then it appears go for patch tests or prick tests to rule out any allergens.
