What Is Red Itchy Welps Spreading Into Rashes With White Patches?
I have what started out as a small area of what looked like red bites on my outer thigh last Monday that were itchy and so I have been spraying it with medicine to calm the itch thinking it would go away. Unfortunately now they are itchy welps that have spread into a rash with some white patches on them. What could it be?

Hi,
It could possibly be a fungal infection. I suggest you use an OTC topical antifungal e.g. Clotrimazole cream. In addition, I suggest you take an oral antihistamine e.g. Cetirizine tablet.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
