Thank you for the information. Your history is suggestive of either persistent hypersensitivity reaction to insect bites, scabies or prurigo nodularis. Since you have been getting these bumps regularly without any obvious history of being bitten by insects, scabies needs to be ruled out. The only sure shot way of doing this is to treat for scabies and see if the symptoms resolve.

Here is what is required as treatment:

• 5% Permethrin cream to be applied all over the body barring the face and scalp once now and once 7 days after the first application. The cream must be left on the body for 12 hours and then washed off

• Tab Allegra 180 mg once a day + Tab Atarax 50 mg once at night for 2-4 weeks depending on itching
• Tab Ivermectin (Stromectol) 12 mg (if body wt>60 kgs), 9 mg (if body wt<60 kgs) - taken once now and once 7 days later (take on empty stomach)
• Wash all the clothes and linen in boiling water or the hot cycle of the washing machine.
