Question

I'm really worried because I recently changed my wedding bangles, and now I have these small red boils all over my arms. They itch really badly, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could this be an allergic reaction to the bangles? What should I do to relieve the itching and get rid of the bumps?

Could be a sign of an allergic reaction or skin infection. To help with the itching and treat the boils, you can try using an over-the-counter antihistamine like Cetirizine (10mg) once daily. Additionally, applying a topical antibiotic cream like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the affected areas twice a day can help prevent infection and promote healing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
