Infection near neck
A few days back there was an infection near the neck area and i had consulted a dermatologist online. It was said that maybe that is an insect bite so i was given HHFUDIC cream to apply . It started working and it was recovering and it recovered also. After a few days there was slight white patches and i was said that overuse of that cream might cause that. Slowly the skin will gain back its colour . Recently yesterday there are again reddish areas near my neck . Is it again from the same insect ? 3 of our family members are facing the same problem in the same area. Is it due to a particular insect which is causing this over and over again ?

Yes it can be ! Family history of similar illness points towards an infectious disease that spreads from one to another or due to similar living conditions like insects nearby etc. Just check if you have a lot of greenery all around it can point towards it.

Hi...very likely that you have bed bugs in your house. HHFUDIC is a very potent cream. Do not use it liberally.
