Hello,
This might be an infection sign also despite the allergic reactions. Sometimes the infestation of a microbe might be the cause. For this we see the patient closely with a dermatoscope device. Please discuss with your doctor for this.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Jolanda Nikolla, Pulmonologist
