Suggest Treatment For Rashes On Ankles

I have some sort of rash or bug bite that started on my ankles, at first I thought it was a flea bite and then it just sort of spread, to my feet and now as high as my hips, I have no clue what this could be and everything I research makes me think it could be that. Any ideas ?

Dermatologist 's  Response
if they are just papules, i.e. small raised 'bumps' without any ooze, it could be scabies or any infestation. There is no harm in trying out Permite 5% cream. Apply it overnight, below your chin all over your body. And wash it in morning with antiscabetic soap like HHMite. and take tablet Atarax 25mg at night for 2 weeks.
