What Causes Itchy Bumps On Hands?

I woke up with a lot of itchy bumps. It is not bed bugs. They are separately spaced and they are white with a lot of red around them. They itch a lot. They appear on my arms and hands. Yesterday my pinky was also swollen because of some type of bite I got at night.

Hi Dear,Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy bumps on hands which occurs due to fungal infection, allergic reaction and blockage of clogged pores.Need not to worry. I would suggest you to get hormone levels monitored. Make use of product containing benzoyl peroxide. Take Multivitamin supplements. Apply topical antibacterial ointment such as mupirocin and do yoga and meditation daily. Drink plenty of water daily and add fresh fruits and vegetables to your diet. Apply Adapalene gel once at night. Apply aloe vera gel and apply azelaic acid containing cream twice a day.If condition doesn't start getting better in a month then consult dermatologist.Hope your concern has been resolved.Best Wishes,Dr. Harry Maheshwari
