Itchy Bruised On Hand, Spreading. Taking Benadryl. Not Cured
On the back of my hand is a red looking bruise that popped up 4 days ago it starting to look like its spreading and there are some dots that are the same color that came about today. it itches and my best friend has the EXACT same redness on same hand. its not painful and doesnt feel warm to the touch. ive taking benadryl twice and it didnt do anything i have no allergies whatsoever
Hi, Thanks for writing to us. Without looking at the lesion, it would be difficult to diagnose it. But it could be an insect bite, eczema, bruise etc. Right now continue taking Benadryl and apply steroid cream mixed in calamine lotion over the rash two times in a day. Follow the prescription for five days but if lesion does not seem to respond, please meet a dermatologist nearby. Hope this helped. Take care
