Hi, You are 39 years, got recurring bumps on legs, red in color, pain full.
It appears to be an allergic reaction, to the soap, under garments, pants, which come in contact with legs.For my patients i prescribe levocitrizine, anti biotics, and some steroid liquid for local application.
You can consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
