What Are Raised Bumps From Thighs To Rib Cage Suggestive Of?
My boyfriend has raised bumps from his thighs to his rib cage, almost looks like allergic hives but his diet, soaps, and detergents have not changed. Benadryl helps, but only controls it until it wears off. I don t know what else it could be other than an allergic reaction, however, his throat doesn t itch and hasn t felt like it s closed. I m not sure what I should do. Suggestions?

Hello,
The symptoms of your boyfriend seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I suggest using antihistamines such as Cetirizine.
I also suggest using Calamine lotion for local application.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
