Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy feeling in the middle of back. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like hair follicle infection, clogged pores of skin pores with bacteria and sebum, dermatitis, eczema, systemic pathology, allergic reaction and side effects of drug. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated , keep yourself away from the allergens and continue taking antihistamine like zyrtec or benadryl. You should apply topical antibacterial ointment on it for 0.2% mupirocin. If condition doesn't get better the consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order blood test , allergy test and physical examination. Doctor may prescribe immunosuppressants along with corticosteroid ointment or antibiotics like clindamycin .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
