Lumps Under Skin, Had Allergic Reaction, Have Acne. Taken Accutane What Is Going On?

My 2l year old daughter has developed some lumps under the skin on her legs. Our doctor says its an allergic reaction to something (the only thing she is taking right now is Carcinia Cambogia extract) but these lumps appeared before she started this product. As well, she did try the acne medicine Accutane about 6 or 7 years ago and had to stop after a month as she had a severe reaction (again, lumps on her legs, sort muscles, etc.) Is what she has now related to the past reaction?

Hi i do not think any drug causes allergic reaction after a so long time.these lumps are not related to past reaction.lumps according to description can be lipomas which is a benign condition should be treated with only excision of the lesions only for cosmetic purposes
