Suggest Remedy For Skin Ailments

I ve been living in Mexico (the Yucatan). A few months ago I noticed some sort of bug bite, it had two holes in close proximity to one another. A few weeks later, under my chin, my ankles and wrists became very swollen. The doctor gave me circulation meds, but I think the swelling subsided with time. But ever since, my left leg has had these bumpy bruises that do not go away. Christine
