Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for posting your query to the forum.
I can understand your concern for the random little dots like blisters.
I've analyzed the pictures with best clinical acumen. Though it is too early to give a most appropriate diagnosis but it appears to be an "Insect bite".
Let me suggest you certain important things which are helpful in management of the condition:
- Keep your self away from hot and humid climate.
- Do cold compression or warm water compresses according to the weather condition.
- Wear cotton clothes to be changed two times a day. Do not wear any synthetic or tight garments.
- Do not sit continuously for long hours. preferably stay in air conditioned environment away from heat and humidity.
For the presumptive treatment:
1. In my patients I suggest them to apply "hydrocortisone cream" over the affected area. Apply in a very thin layer so that it should not be visible to naked eye. You can apply it for 7 days and then stop it after that.
2. In most of the cases I prefer to give paracetamol(Crocin) for any pain.
3. If there is any irritation or itching is present then I prefer tablet “Loratadine” or "Deslotatadine" (Claritin) tablet by mouth up to 2 times for as long as the itching is present.
I hope these information's will help you. If you have further queries I will be happy to help.
"Wish you good health and early recovery from the problem"
