Itchy Spots All Over Body, Not Mosquito Bites, Cleared Up, Now Flaring Up Again. Treatment?
I am getting itchy spots on my body (especially along my bra line and panty line) it gets extrememly itchy late evening, and through the night. I haven t been bitten my mosquitos..but the itchy spots are very similar to this. this was really bad 3 weeks ago, then seemed to clear, now the past 3 days it has flared up again, and each day more spots are appearing and are very itchy.

hi dear, this looks like urticaria or a contact dermatitis. i would like to know if it occurs only along the bra and panty lines, then it may be contact dermatitis and solution to this will be to apply a talcum powder before wearing, and also a probable change in brand of cloth as the elastic used may cause u allergy and various companies use different types of elastic. if it occurs elsewhere on body also u might be having urticaria and need to meet a dermatologist. thank u
