Reoccurring itchy lumps on legs....

[sunshine99789]

Hi,
So I have been to the GP a couple of times about this rash on my leg and they don't seem to know what it is.
It comes and goes....when it flares up, it itches like absolue CRAZY.
Has anyone had anything similar please? Apparently is NOT folliculitis or scabies.

Might it be hives?

I get hives and they are incredibly itchy for me. Antihistamines help immensely

I honestly don't know, but for the GP surely hives would have been one of the easier options instead of saying 'I don't know...here try this cream'

The itching is driving me mad!

Take antihistamines, see how you go.

Could be carpet fleas. We had problems at work with those little critters once

You’d have thought so! I’d take the antihistamines anyway - they’re likely to help with the itching whatever the cause.

Are the lumps hard or soft?

Have you tried this from the pharmacy? It's good for itching.
