I have gone to my family doctor and she ll only prescribe me an ointment. she doesn t know what can cause it. it usually starts on my ankles/feet and slowly progress over the next two-three weeks to my legs. Its patches of red bumps that will calm and flare up.
As per your query you have symptoms of recurring patches of red bumps on ankles, feet and legs which can occur due to contact dermatitis, eczema and excessive heat generation.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you consult a dermatologist for proper examination. The doctor may order blood test, allergy test and skin patch test to confirm the diagnosis and may prescribe immunosuppressants and corticosteroid ointment along with antibacterial or antiviral depending upon the diagnosis. For now, avoid exposure to sunlight, drink plenty of water and take Benadryl.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
