Small Red Raised Bumps on Legs and Ankles

by Hope

My nine year old daughter went to a school dance a week after recuperating from the flu. About an hour after she was at the dance she started getting a leg rash with small red bumps on her ankles and up her legs but they did not itch. Shortly after coming home her left ankle started to swell. I gave her Benadryl and put cream on her leg rash as well as soaking her ankle in hot water. We went to the hospital the next day when her knee was swollen as well and the spots were moving up her back (the spots still did not itch and actually never started to itch) and it hurt for her to walk. The doctor said it was an auto immune disorder and called it HDS but I cannot find anything on this. The doctor said that the rash on legs would go away and it was her body shutting down after being sick but she is alright now and it will go away soon. The problem is that it keeps coming back. Any time she is playing or running around for a little while the red welts on her legs come back.

Does anyone have any clue what these leg rashes can be? It has been almost a month now and they keep coming back. Please help.

Red Itchy Rashes on Legs

by Eshwar
(Hyd)

For the last few weeks I have had red itchy leg rashes which are spreading all over my legs. These leg rashes are eventually turning into something like dry wounds. Even though they are itching, there is no discharge of pus. Sometimes there is a water-like discharge from this rash on legs. I have tried wiping this water-like discharge and applying it on another skin area to check if I get a leg rash there and no skin rash formed at all.

I can confirm that it is not an infectious disease. However, these rashes have not stopped and are spreading like round red spots all over my legs. I have consulted with dermatologists and based on their sugestion, I took a few injections with AVIL and some other components. These injections had a nice effect, however the leg skin rash started spreading again as soon as I stopped taking those injections.

Please help with this leg rash. I am fed up with these rashes.

They go away a bit when I am cold but when material touches my legs they go horribly red. Does any one have any sugestions about this leg rash because its really embarrassing! Thank you.

Discolored Skin Leg Rash

by Cah

I have a problem with the skin on my leg area. I notice that every time I shave it gets irritated and then I'd scratch it until it peels and leaves ugly dark discoloration marks on my legs. They look like old sores.

The marks take forever to heal and it is just so visible I can't stand wearing shorts or a skirt! I noticed the women on my dads side of the family have ugly legs also but some do not shave. Could this be hereditary?

I need to know a good quick way to get rid of these discoloration marks and make my legs look flawless. This problem started when I was a teen and I am now 35 years old.

Inner Thighs Reddish Flat Rash

by Denise
(Ct)

I have a rash on the top of my inner thighs that is slightly reddish and feels a little rough but it is not itchy. I have an appointment with a dermatologist but I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this type of rash. It is very uncomfortable.

I believe it may have started when I was away in August of this year at a cottage on a lake where it was very hot with no air conditioning. Also, it may have started in the groin area because it was reddish with small bumps in the crease of the thigh. But that area is much better but now this reddish flat rash has appeared.
