Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

It seems that you may be having lichen urticatus..also called papular urticaria. There may be itchy papular eruptions anywhere on body. They may occur off and on. The disease may be the result of hypersensitivity to the insects like bedbug, mosquito and flea or some other. Oral antihistaminics like hydroxyzine or desloratidine may be taken for long time. If needed, steroids in tappering dose may be taken. Apply mild steroid cream. Take precautions to prevent bites of insects. You may be alright. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
