It isn't possible to: diagnose the cause of your skin condition with the available information. You can go on Healthtap Prime where they can visualize the lesions with cell phone camera. for more accurate assessment. Benadryl (diphenhydramine) may help to reduce itching. It is over the counter but can sometimes be sedating. Take care.
