Q: Small, Itchy Bumps On Upper Arms And Sides

Yesterday, when I awoke I noticed these small itchy bumps on my body. These bumps are more concentrated on my upper arms, but are also affecting my lower arms and my sides (below my arm pits). The bumps are somewhat red in coloring, but more closely resemble my own skin tone. I took no action against them yesterday, hoping I was simply having an alergenic reaction to something, and the bumps would go away shortly. Since waking up today, I have applied hydrocortisone to the affected area twice. The situation has not seemed to either decrease or increase in serverity.

As a child, I did experience some eczema.


If anyone could provide any insight for my situation, it would be much appreciated.


Thanks.
