they are red bumps that are irritating and
itch n when i scratch they go invisible/
back to skin color but i see bumps
everywhere. they are on my arms near my
elbows and on my lower leg. its weird
because i have some on my right thigh but
none on my left.i feel like a frog. i also
think i have exzema on my lower right
corner of my hip. how do i stop the bumps?

It's hard to tell exactly what you have,
but an OTC hydrocortizone cream will help
with the eczema. Keep your skin well
hydrated. Winter conditions can be very
dry and cause your skin to be more
susceptible to things like very dry skin
and itchy rashes.
Don't take hot showers, since this will
dry out your skin even more. Warm showers
and an oil-based lotion will help your
skin.
If your rash isn't weather/dry-condition
related, check to see if you have changed
anything in your life, such as brands of
laundry detergent or soap. Food allergies
such as milk can also trigger eczema.
