Brief Answer:
Possibly Erythema nodosum

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
It looks like Erythema nodosum occurring in a classic distribution over the front
of the leg. It has many causes. I will encourage you to visit a dermatologist. He/she can evaluate the condition further to arrive at the possible reason.
