What Causes Red Bump Like Rashes On Legs?

I have a rash on my legs. I started as small red bumps on the top of my legs and then went to the inside of my legs (only) with large red areas below the knees and down to the ankle area. I tried cortisone over the counter but it didn t help, Can you recommend anything? susan

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction. I recommend to use an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest to continue using a steroid cream such as Hydrocortisone cream for local application.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
