Suggest Treatment For Bumps And Itching All Over The Body

I am a 58 year old female who got bumps after sunning at the beach which itched and scaled over. This was in July. The original bumps do not itch as much but are scaled over. I continue to get new bumps. The original ones were on my back, arms, and chest. Now they can be anywhere.

Hello dear,
Welcome to HCM.
I have read your query and understood your concern.

it seems that you have been suffering from a condition called urticaria. It is an allergic condition of skin characterised by red itchy bumps which are transient.
It may be due to recent infection, recent drugs, seasonal change, sun exposure, cold, pollen grains, food etc.

i usually advise such patients to take tab levocetrizine in night and fexofenadine in morning for atleast 2 weeks.
you may discuss this with your doctor.
Stay healthy.
