Suggest Remedy For Bumps In Legs & Upper Thigh

I have these weird bumps forming on my legs, most of them are quite uniform in size except for the first one that appeared. They are mainly on my upper thigh but there are a couple on my leg. They don t hurt or itch. They are dry though. some of them have a slightly yellow center. The biggest one is about an inch wide and the rest are a few centimeters.

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,

As per your case history you are having fungal infection called as tinea corporis. My treatment advice is -
1. Maintain good hygiene and bath twice daily.
2. Apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine medication like levocetrizine twice daily for 7-10 days.
4. Other treatment options are oral fluconazole, itraconazole and terbinafine taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harshit Bhachech
