Burning Red Lumps With Bruises On Legs, Thigh And Knee. Suggest

Hi ive got 4 red lumps on inner thigh which surround a bruise, another lump above my knee at back and one on lower leg, since yesterday. The area feels like is burning rather than itching. Not sure what the cause it thinking it maybe an insect bite but ive been wearing trousers and im not allergic to bites. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
It looks like insect bite,
Another consideration can be recurrent furunculosis.
Apply some antibiotic cream, oral antibiotics will also be a good choice.

Dont worry its just a temporary condition, you will soon recover.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
