What Causes Small Bumps Behind The Upper Legs And Above Knees?
Question: For the past 3 weeks I have noticed a very large number of small bumps on teh back of my upper legs above the knees and closer to the butt. They do not itch or hurt at all. If I had not felt them I would not know they are there. There are literally thousands of little bumps all over the backs of both legs. Should I be concerned?
Brief Answer:
ay be multivitamin deficiency.
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of Thousands of bumps at the back of both thighs and the past history of cancer survivor andedication history.
The bumps on both sides on back of thighs are known to occur in vitamin deficiency.
Rare possibility of an allergic reaction to something in the sofa or chair in which you sit should be considered.
Your posting clear and focussed photographs would have helped me for on- the- spot diagnosis.
I would advised you be concerned and consult your Do for and get an opinion of a Dermatologist too if asked for to get an appropriated diagnosis and proper therautic treatment.
You may also ask for vitamins estimations in blood to decide the proper dosages.
I hope, this answer helps.
