Question
I’ve been itchy since yesterday. Later, red bumps appeared on my belly, back, hands, and feet. The small ones are 1 millimeter in diameter and the large ones are 2 millimeters in diameter, and the bumps are a bit swollen.
Answer
There can be many causes, such as urticaria, eczema, dermatitis, drug rash, skin itching, neurodermatitis, insect bite, and solar dermatitis. You can take antihistamines, vitamin C tablets, and ceftriaxone tablets. Avoid eating spicy, irritating, greasy, and hot foods. If the child is diagnosed with hand, foot, and mouth disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for active treatment, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child should have a balanced diet and avoid stimulating and cold foods.
