Hello dear,
Welcome to healthcaremagic.
I have read your query and understood your concern.
I have seen the attached pic also. Thanks for attaching the same.

It seems you have got pedrous dermatitis that is also known as insect bite.

I would like to know whether you got similar rash ever before ?
Any obvious insect bite noticed by you or it went unnoticed?

You may continue taking antihistaminic tablet for symptomatic relief.

Kindly reply to my questions so that I can help you to my best.
