Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of lazor burns on upper legs or thigh areas which seems to be due to hair follicle infection leading to folliculitis and it could be due to furuncle or boil. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to apply topical antibacterial ointment and wear loose clothes. You should take course of oral antibiotics. Maintain complete hygiene and keep area little dry. Visit dermatologist once if symptoms keeps on persisting. Start treatment after complete examination and proper prescription. You should wear loose clothes and avoid sharing them with anyone. You should avoid touching or pricking bumps.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
