Itchy red/white bumps due to CORAL SCRATCH POISONING.

Resolved Question:

I have the poisoning from coral scratch on my foot during the diving in Cuba, in May this year. Unfortunately I did not pay attention to wash it with peroxide and now for 3+ moths i have red and white bumps and lines on my body popping up and disappearing after 20 minutes.
In the beginning they was very itchy and now it is less to non itchy.
I did took fungus peels (terbinafine 250mg) one set of 20 and lots of antibiotic (clarithromycin 500mg) last 2+ months. The symptoms become less often but still 2-3 time a day the blips and read spots popping up.
Now I'm taking the homeopathic medicine ParaFree.

Hello.
Thank you for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com
I understand your concern.


You seem to be having urticaria or what we refer to as hives. This could have been initiated when you had the coral scratch.

I would recommend that you take an antihistamine like tab. Allegra 180 mg once a day for at least 3 weeks.
Regards.
