Hello Atikah,
Thank you for the question.
Itching on the neck can not only be caused by an allergic reaction. It could also be, the itchiness that your father feels on his neck arises from mosquito or other insect bites, contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, tinea corporis, impetigo, scabies, prickly heat, xerosis, hormonal disorders, neurodermatitis, drug effects, and so on.
The bumps that your father experienced in the area of the itchy neck after being applied to the betel leaf collision may occur due to various reasons above, or might also indicate that he is allergic to the betel leaf.
To improve, we suggest, your father first make the following efforts:
Do not scratch the itchy skin
A diligent bath 2 times a day, wash your hair 1-2 days, rinse thoroughly with water, dry your body well, wear clean, loose, and soft clothing.
Before the activity, wear a moisturizer in areas that often itch
For itching to subside, apply calamine lotion on your neck
Do not carelessly exchange personal belongings with others
Avoid excessive sadness and anxiety
Keep yourself away from things that make you allergic or irritated
If for a long time your father's complaints become more widespread, become festering, or spread to the people around him, it is better to ask him to consult him directly to the doctor or dermatologist to be handled properly. Conversely, if with the steps above he starts to improve his complaints, the examination to the doctor should be postponed first, so that his risk of contracting dangerous diseases (including COVID-19) can be minimized.
Hope this helps ...
