I have kids Benadryl and I gotta find some diaper ointment. Or go buy some. Lol I haven't been scratching I kinda just rub. It's more annoying since it's on my butt. I thought it was a spider bite at first but once the other one closed a new one came smh

I had PUPPs on my thighs and belly, it lasted about a week maybe less. I took benadryl and washed the rash with aloe vers soap and put some of my babies diaper rash cream on it lol (: and whenever I was in my room I wouldn't wear any clothes... And I constantly put ice packs on it for temporary relief.. Try not to scratch it cause the more you scratch the itchier it gets. I think what REALLY helped me was the benadryl.

I never got it again but it took almost two weeks to fully go away. Benadryl was the only thing that speed the itching

Talk to your Dr. About dandelion root. I helped my SIL research this when she had her son, and it seemed to give some relief.

It's like these itchy red bumps some women get while pregnant they say it mostly happen to 70 percent of women who are having boys.  Or twins. And the only way to cure it is giving birth.
