Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,
These red lumps could be blister or hematoma but they need to get inspected by visual of the eye for at least once to detect the exactly what they are.
In dermatology, one needs to look at the lesion by his naked eye in order to confirm the diagnosis.
However, you can take antiallergic like cetrizine 10 mg twice daily and ibuprofen for antiinflammatory action which are available over the counter.
Kindly consult some local doctor or GP who will prescribe the specific medications after confirmed diagnosis.
