What Causes Reddish Bumps All Over The Body With Severe Itching?
My husband has had a breakout all over his body for the past couple of days. He has red welts and is itching non stop. He is swelling in his hands, arms, and feet. He has taken Benadryl since it started and it is not helping in any way. He is unable to sleep due to itching. What could be causing this and what do we need to do to make him better? Thank you
Hi, It seems that there might be having severe urticarial rashes giving this problem. This can be due to some allergens either internal or external. Try to find out the allergen and avoid it. This can be due to duo spray, cosmetics, soap, synthetic clothes, handling some chemicals, intestinal worms some foods, infection. etc. Rule out diabetes as well. Take Cetrizine or Levo-cetrizine for few days. If require go for one antibiotic medicine course for 3 days. Ok and take care.
