my daughter has a few red spots on her face that are very itchy but dont look like bites it happened a few weeks ago iand i took her to the doctors and she said she had bed bug bites. i called an exterminator cleaned out her room throw out the pillows. the dr gave her an antibotic she stayed in my room for a few days. she has been back in her room and a few days later she has the spots again so i dont know where she is getting them from or what it is
It seems to be an insect bite hypersensitivity reaction. I would recommend you to apply topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily and take anti-histaminic like tablet chlorpheniramine maleate 4 mg once daily.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
