How Can Sores On The Arms And Legs Be Treated?

I have sores on my arms and legs only,(no other body parts) that look as though there flea bites or bed bugs and severely itches for over 3 months now.. they become large and pus... I thought bed bug at first as the itching is at its worse as I try to sleep in the bed at night and have treated the matters for them to no avail... The wife that sleeps in the bed with me has no symptoms nor does anyone else living in the house..

Hi,

If this has been for last three months I don't think this would be any insect or bug bite. This may be more like an autoimmune or allergic skin problems. So, I personally advise, it's time to show it to a dermatologist or share the picture with us if possible.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
