Red Bumps On Upper Legs With Circular Red Ring, Sore To Touch, Not Itchy. What Could The Cause Be?
Over the last few weeks, I have had these red bumps that look like bug bites appear on both of my upper legs. Each bump has a small circular red ring around the surrounding skin. They appear one at a time, last a few days then begin to disappear and then a new one will appear in a different spot. They do not itch and are slightly sore to touch. The last 2 have had small whiteheads in them. The skin almost looks scarred where the bumps were. They are not in places where I would have to shave often, so I don t think that s related. Have been debating on seeing a doctor as I have now had 4 of these bumps appearing now.
Thanks for the question onHCM
You are probably having insect bite /popular urticaria, which present as circular red papules which heal with a dark spots .
Apply steroid cum antibacterial cream bid , spray insecticide spray where you sleep and sit ,
watch for bedbugs in bed.
Cover windows and doors with mosqueto nets.
Tell me after 2weeks
