Red bump on skin

2022-11-23 04:58:18
I suffer from urticaria but this red bump appeared recently on hand and looks different from other hives I get. Before this, similar bumps appeared but turned into brown spots. Also, this is not going away even after I have put ointment. It's been 3 days. What is this exactly and should I take any precautions? Please help.
