Hi!,
Welcome To HealthcareMagic forum,
Seems like you are getting folliculitis ...did you got a waxing done for your legs...usually waxing increases this condition...apply t-bact cream over it ..if it doesn't go then take an antibiotic course also.You can consult a dermatologista for above prescription.
take care,
Dr.chawda
