Had A Knot On Foot Which Disappeared. Now On Neck And Behind Ear. Does This Need Medical Attention?
I had a knot on my left foot which disappeared after a day or so, then one that showed up on my left knee days later, again which disappeared, now one has arrived on my neck as of today and a smaller one near behind my ear. Do I need to seek immediate medical attention? This is following a recent trip from Florida to North Carolina (I returned home to FL today)

Hi,
From what you say, you could have small allergic skin lesions which are self limited in nature.
You have said nothing about it being itchy or painful.
You could take some antihitamines (anti allergics) and see. If the skin feels iirtable, please apply calamine lotion over it.
Hope this helps,
