Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was looking thru skin problems on MD but found nothing that looks like what I have. It is slight redness and itchy only on my arms. It feels bumpy but not big bumps. You can t really see them but you can feel them.It started only on one arm in small area,but has spread on arms up to fold.what can this be?
It can be due to some fungal infection or allergy for which you take antibiotics like cefadroxyl or zifi-cv after an expert opinion along with cetrizine or Avil for itching or rashes. Apply betnovate-c or clobit-gm cream locally on the affected area. You can take steroids if not improved with above treatment.
