Anti histamines for allergy, topical anti septic drugs and consider antibio

Detailed Answer:
hi and thanks for the query

this looks like you are developing an allergy towards something. this could be a drug, insect bite or some environmental agent. it might necessary to relief symptoms with anti allergy drugs like anti histaminics (mequitazine or promethazine etc) and use topical anti septic soap to bathe to avoid infection.

in case the wounds look infected already or have some discharge or are so numerous, this could predispose to infections and antibiotics might be needed at some point.

now I suggest topical anti septic with anti allergy drugs. in case symptoms worsen you might have to see your doctor.

parasitic infections like scabies are rare but need to be considered in case you start developing skin eruptions and itches in between your toes and fingers.

thanks and kind regards as I wish you the best of health.
