What Could Be The Itchy, Red Bumps On Arm?

A few days ago I noticed a few itchy little red bumps on my arms. Ever since, I have a few more every morning. I do not have a rash and the bumps are not grouped together. This morning I found a new one on my hip. Do you have any idea what this might be?

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,

It could be an allergic reaction or eczematous rash. I would recommend you to apply topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet chlorpheniramine maleate 4 mg once or twice daily depending on the intensity of itching.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney
