Hi,

After going through the history,I concluded that your mom may be having contact allergic dermatitis on both legs. So, consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to apply mild steroid cream on her legs twice a day. And give her a long and tapering course of oral steroid along with antihistaminics after the consultation with the dermatologist. Avoid contact with suspected allergens.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
