What Do Red Bumps On The Body Indicate?
I have five to six red bumps no Whitehead on them or anything but it seems to be the skin peeling back on the ones that are about a week old there about quarter inch in diameter sore to the touch and they almost look like a boil or or something along those lines but I got them on both forms but nowhere else on my body curious as to what it could be

Hi Dear,
As per your query you have symptoms of red bumps on body which could be due to scabies, bed bug bites and it could be due to allergic reaction of body to allergens as well.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to
- Maintain complete cleanliness of bed and terminate bugs.
- Take oral antihistamine medications.
- Drink plenty of water.
- Maintain complete hygiene and avoid sun exposure.
If symptoms keeps on persisting visit dermatologist once and get it examined completely and start treatment,
Best Wishes,
