Hello and welcome to HCM,
Itchy fluid filled bumps on chest and calves could be due to vesiculo-bullous lesion.
Do the bumps rupture, bleed or leave behind open sores?
If yes then possibility of vesiculo-bullous lesion is increased.
You need to consult a dermatologist for clinical assessment, relevant investigations like biopsy of the skin lesion.
A histopathological examination can determine the nature and cause of lesion.
Thanks and take care
