Should I Be Concerned About Red Bumps Cluster In The Middle Of My Back?

I have 8 small red bumps in a cluster in the middle of my back, they randomly appeared a few days ago. They are kind of itchy and I was concerned because I recently found out i m pregnant and started taking a prenatal and fish oil capsule everyday. Is this something to be concerned about?

Hi, thank you for asking healthcare magic
I understand your concerns.
With this presentation, I think it could be Herpes simplex. This may happen when the immune system is affected and pregnancy can do that. The bumps will disappear on their own or you can use Acyclovir.


I hope that helps
I wish you well
