My legs have been itching everyday and I get small little bumps, what can it be?

[Anonymous]

The itching is happening in both legs, from foot to upper thigh. However; I’m noticing bumps in my left leg that resembles an insect bite (small hard circle with red dot in tmr middle) and it’s not hives. I’m also not diabetic so it can’t be a diabetic itch. I notice that it happens throughout the day but mainly when I wake up in the morning. I itch it like crazy! I apply a generous amount of lotion and it still itches. Why would both legs itch but only one get bumps?

I’d be willing to visit the doctor if it continues but I wanted to get some opinions on here as well. Thanks!

Sounds like either an allergic reaction to something or a rash, if it's bug bites then it's most likely bed bugs considering you said it's in the morning

It sounds like an allergic reaction. I’m a nurse and I mean I’m not 100 percent sure here but have you tried taking Benadryl at all? If the bumps are only on one leg it may just be your body reacting more there I don't know. Bed bugs I would think would be both legs. Try going to a detergent that is clear and has no dyes etc

As there are possibly no doctors or medical personnel on this site that can tell you what is going on. The best thing is to see the doctor in the meantime check your bed for bed bugs

Maybe you got bed bugs and those are bites? Or, depending where you live it could be ticks.

Sounds like you have an allergic reaction. Did you change your detergent or softener? I'd try taking benadryl and then maybe getting an anti itch (like this)
