What Could Be The Cause Of Itchy And Burning Lumps That Start Turning Into Bruises?

Hi, about two weeks ago I found a large red lump on the back of my right thigh, the next day I had another 3 on my right leg and 3 on my left. They ve now started to turn into bruises. They re very itchy and burn an awful lot, particularly at night. I ve not been using any different soaps/shower gels, do you know what it could be? Thanks
