Suggest Treatment For Blisters All Over The Body

I woke up this morning to something near my butthole feeling uncomfortable, so I obviously tried to check it out and I found a small round red bug. It didn t look like a bed bug to me, it looked more like a deep red in colour ladybug, just a little smaller. I haven t seen anymore, but I have noticed a couple of little blood blister looking things, but I can t get a good look as it s obviously imbetween my butt cheeks. I m just worried because my sister and her children are here visiting and if whatever I have is contagious I really don t want them to get it.

Hi.
As per your case history you are having insect bite dermatitis.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't worry it is not contagious.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics, oral steroid taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
