Spoke With A Dermatoligists Nurse This Afternoon -have Had For

spoke with a dermatoligists nurse this afternoon -have had for 2 years on my lower legs below knee - multiple bumps resemble acne bleed sometimes with what could be puss under each hair follicle. when opened up it is dry though -has caused heavy thick flaky scarred skin on tops of legs, have tried multiple skin creams prescribed by doctors none help. Best results comes from soaking in a bath with a half cup of bleach in it or swimming in a chlorinated pool seems to reduce area of what ever this is. She mentioned 2 things, a hair follicle infection and also because I am 57 possible condition due to poor circulation. Can't remember either's name. Could be either as I am over weight and have circulation issues. She mentioned brownish and pinkish colarationunder bumps which I do have. Can you come up with either name possibly so I can read up on the internet more - she is not my doctor's nurse and receptionist was rude about letting me talk to her again.
