Suggest Treatment For Itchy Bumps On The Knee And Lower Leg
Question: I have had a lot of what seem like bumps under my skin from my right knee all the way up the leg on the right mostly and about three bumps on my rear that itch really bad and feel like it is moving or is bothering nerve ends. Nothing anywhere else. I went to the doctor and she wasn't sure what it was but took a biopsy of only one blister on top of the skin that looked like shingles. The biopsy hasn't come back yet. The itch has been so bad I was trying anything from cortezones to hemroid cream. I went to the vet with my dog and got some vetericyn gel that seemed to stop some of the itching but it flared up again tonight. I don't know what to put on it. There was only the one blister type on top and it doesn't hurt, only itches really bad.

According to your complaints it can be an autoimmune bullous disease or drug reaction or insect bite hypersensitivity reaction.
A biopic will help in arriving at the diagnosis.
Meanwhile I would recommend you to upload the pictures of the affected areas so that I can have a clearer picture of the condition and can guide you accordingly.
For itching I would recommend you to take antihistaminic like tablet Cetrizine 10 mg twice daily.
