What Is Causing Small Cluster Of Welt Marks On My Back?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here.. I have a small cluster of welt marks on the middle of my back that I found when I woke up yesterday. My lower back also hurts really bad. Could I have been bitten by something that's causing both of these things?

Hi,
From history as welt marks appeared all of a sudden with pain in lower back indicates that you might be having Herpes zoster infection.
Another possibility of having some poisonous insect bite is there.
Clinical examination with personal viewing the lesion will give exact idea of lesion.
consult your doctor and get clinically assessed.
Meanwhile take some ibuprofen medicine and apply triple action cream.
Ok and take care.
