Dermatologist 's  Response
hi, thank you for putting up your query on HCM.
as per your history, you may have allergic reaction or papular urticaria.
my treatment advise would be:
1. wear full cotton pants.
2. take tab levocetrizine twice a day for itching.
3. you may apply topical corticosteroids such as Betnovate cream twice a day over your legs.
if persistent, consult a dermatologist nearby.
wishing you good health.
thank you
