What Causes Painful Lumps Under Lower Leg?

Good evening

This morning I woke up with painful lumps under my skin on my right lower leg (I assumed I'd knocked myself in the night) within a few hours they turned red and got more painful. They also then appeared on my left leg. They are very sensitive to the touch, painful kind of tingly is well. The diameter of them is about 2 inches. I have seen two pharmacists and were both clueless.

Hi,Good Evening.Thanks for the query to my HCM virtual-CLINIC.I studied your query in-depth.
-In my opinion-You are suffering -mostly from-Erythema Nodosum or? Hive-URTICARIA.
-Please consult your family doctor instead of your pharmacist freinds,and get special consultation from skin doctor.
-This would help you to relive the painful lumps very soon.
Remedy-
a-Tb-NSAIDs,
b-Tb-Antihistaminic-would relieve in 2-3 days time.
c-If no relief-Hetarazan-after CBC test to treat eosinophilia causing URTICARIA.
If Erythema Nodosum, it would go in 2-3 wks time on its own.
-Hope this would help to resolve your painful-leg lumps by discussing with your doctor.
Wishing you fast-recovery.
Wellcome to my HCM Clinic again.Good night.
