Could Webers-Christians Disease Cause Lumps On Arms And Stomach?

I have as many as 12-15 medium to large lumps on my arms, occasionally a couple on stomach... these lumps are hot to touch and filled with pus...they leave scars that turn dark blusih gray. i was told they could be from Webers-Christians disease but i have never seen anyone else have them. they hurt and are embarrassing. I am 65 and have had these for5- or more years but have gotten worse.
