Tiny Bumps Recurring In Elbows And Wrists Along Followed With Crazy Itching

About 2 months ago I had a lot of tiny bumps on my elbow, and they itched like crazy, so I scratched them, the bumps became hard, and then scabbed and somewhat went away, then I realized I had new bumps on my hand & around my wrist, but it was all on one side of my body. Now I notice that they are also on the other side of my body, and itches like crazy. Also my significant other is now also itching insanely

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
They appear to be due to the allergy, fungal infection, or may be bacterial infection.
As you describe it is difficult to come to a conclusion of diagnosis . So i advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment. By eye examination only one can come to a conclusion.
With out diagnosis don't use any steroid creams, as they will give an appearence of the cure.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. hank you.
