What Causes Itchy Bumps All Over Body?

Brief Answer:
Hives

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for contacting HCM with your medical questions.

I appreciate your attached image as it shows clearly that you have hives. You are currently having an allergic response to something. It could be food or something in the air. The treatment for you would be to take diphenhydramine or loratidine to help stop the itch. If that does not help then I recommend you be seen in an urgent care center for injection of adrenalin and possible steroids. These injections will help stop the itch almost immediately.

With hives we frequently never find out the actual cause but the more common causes are peanuts and sea food. I would recommend you avoid nuts and sea foods in the future. You may also need to keep a food diary to see what foods may cause your hives.

In summary
1. Hives or allergic reaction
2. Treat with an antihistamine like diphenhydramine or loratidine
3. Seek medical attention if rash and itching does not resolve
4. Injection of adrenalin and steroids maybe helpful
5. Seek immediate attention if you have breathing problems
6. Keep a food diary to see what you maybe allergic to

I hope I answered your question. Please contact HCM again with your medical questions and concerns

Brief Answer:
Betamethasone not responsible

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It would be very unusual to be allergic to betamethasone as it is one of the treatments for allergies. It is possible that the vehicle cream could cause allergies. I would recommend not using the cream until after the rash is resolved. I recommend using the diphenhydramine or loratidine.

Regards,
