Suggest Treatment For Oval Shaped Welts On The Lower Abdomen
An oval shaped whelp that alternately itches and burns appeared on my upper abdomen around noon today. It is slightly raised, and is now larger than the area formed by the touching of the middle finger and the thumb. The area is warm, but not hot, to the touch. Any idea what this could be?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of oval shaped welts on the lower abdomen which seems to be due to hair follicle infection by bacteria and due to heat rashes.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to maintain cleanliness of area and keep it dry. You should take diet rich in multivitamins and apply betnovate cream 2-3 times a day. You should apply topical antibacterial ointment mupirocin on it. You should apply vitamin E Oil at night as well. Wear loose clothes. Take oral antibiotic course as well. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined and start treatment after proper prescription.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
