It sounds like you're dealing with a skin condition, possibly related to an allergic reaction, eczema, or contact dermatitis, as evidenced by the red, itchy spots that bleed when scratched. In Ayurveda, this could be linked to an imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which governs inflammation and skin health. To help manage this, you can try applying soothing agents like aloe vera or coconut oil, both of which have cooling and anti-inflammatory properties. Neem oil is another option, known for its antibacterial and antifungal effects. Additionally, avoiding hot, spicy foods and consuming cooling foods like cucumbers and dairy may help reduce internal heat. If the issue persists, it's best to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare provider for personalized treatment.

Wow, itching can be so annoying, especially when it become uncontrollable. Sorry to hear you're dealing with that. The symptoms you're describing resemble a common pitta imbalance scenario, maybe even aggravated by heat or certain spicy foods you're ingesting. Let's explore few things that might help, yeah? First, start by cooling things down both inside n out. Incorporating a Pitta-pacifying diet can be a good move. Avoid spicy foods like chillis, sour items like vinegar, and excessively salty stuff. Switch to more cooling, hydrating foods — cucumber, salad greens, or coconut water can be good buddies for your skin. Try sipping on coriander seed water throughout the day for an additional cooling effect. It's simple, soak a tsp of coriander seeds in water overnight, strain, and sip during day. For external care, Neem is your friend here. You can make a paste using neem leaves or find ready-made neem powder to mix with water. Apply it on the red spots for a soothing effect n to help control infectious factors that could cause further irritation. Keep it on for about 30 minutes before rinse off with lukewarm water. If the itching from your present condition becomes unmanagable, consider coconut oil with a touch of camphor. Just warm a few tablespoons of coconut oil and mix with a pinch of camphor. Apply it gently to the affected zones – the combo gives a cooling and calming touch. Besides, heed to your lifestyle – balancing stress levels via meditation or light yoga can prevent symptoms from getting worse. Remember, itchy situations like yours can sometimes flare up from tension or anxiety. If these recommendations don't bring relief, it's important to get checked out by a healthcare professional as there can be underlying issues needing more immediate attention.
