What Is The Treatment For Rash Bumps And Itching On Ankles And Legs?
Yes. I am allergic to sulfa drugs. I have swelling of ankles and legs and rash bumps with terrible itching. Saw my dr on Friday and he thought it was from my connective tissue disease. Well today is sat and swelling is down but itch is still bad and nothing I try stops the itch. The only thing different I m taking is mucinex and I m allergic to sulfa. I have takin before and no problems but got the dm max this time. Ugh. Help

Hi,
The rash could be a diabetes induced erythema of foot or could be due to arthritis (inflammation of joint). As I could not be able to make a final diagnosis without proper clinical examination. I request you to consult your doctor to arrive at a diagnosis and to provide proper treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Siva Subramanian, Dermatologist
