Hello,
The possible causes for bumps are:
1. Boils
2. Drug eruptions
3. Infections like fungus /bacteria
4. Erythema nodosum et cetera
5. Skin allergy
Avoid allergen, use tablet Cetirizine twice a day for five days. Until examination it is difficult to say what it is please, consult your physician/dermatologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
