Suggest Treatment For Small Itchy Bump On The Back

For the past month I have been getting a tiny pinhole itchy specks on my back. It started on each hip, then back bra strap area. Now higher on my back. I know have 12. I have not changed laundry soap. Its only on my back. The original specks from a month ago are gone. New ones appeared.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi

You seem to have developed some kind of an allergic skin rash .
Such a rash can occur due to contact with any irritable things like clothes or soap or creams .
Apply a topical steroid cream like cortisone cream over the affected areas twice daily .
Take some oral antihistamines like Benadryl or levocetrizine along to relieve the associated itching and allergy .
