What Do Itchy Spots All Over The Body Indicate?
I am plagued with what presents as very tiny, itchy pimples all over my body. As they get bigger they form a tiny yellow scab. They itch very intensely and grow into dime to quarter size lesions. No One can diagnosis it. The dermatologist has tried many creams and ointments and none help. He biopsied it and said it only showed it wasn t contagious or infectious. He took vials of blood to test for allergies but didn;t show very much. Can you please help me?

Hi,
The symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I suggest you do a complete blood count and an IgE total to confirm the diagnosis.
Meanwhile, I would recommend using Calamine lotion for local relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
