Suggest Treatment For Painful Bumps On The Hips
Question: This is a skin related issue. After my retirement, my sitting routine has gone up. Last two summers, on both the hips....the small part that touches the chair...some minor eruption occurs. During winter time it goes away. There is some irritating burning sensation on the skin eruption. It is not a big area...may be a radius of two inches on both sides as stated. It is dry..the skin seems to be raised a little when touched. During winter time there does not seem to be anything. It is absolutely fine. No irritation/burning or raised skin
