What Causes Itchy Red Bumps On The Thighs?

About a month ago, the back of my thighs started to itch badly. I went to the doctor and they said it was an allergic reaction. They gave me a steroid shot and prednisone to tak. It didn t work. I went to a dermatologist and he said I had a skin infection. He gave me some cream and antibiotics to take for a month. It didn t work either. Now the itching is still there, I have red bumps popping up on me that look like pimples, without the puss, I m very very dizzy and ver tired.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM.
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due contact dermatitis or herpes infection. If you send a picture of the rashes then it will be more helpful. Is it coming and disappearing. ? Using ointments containing combination of antifungal agents like miconazole, anti bacterial like neomycin and corticosteroid like clobetasol will be helpful.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
