I have a red bumpy rash that keeps developing on my legs, any idea of what this is?

Shaving?: Are you shaving your legs? Shaving can irritate the hair follicles and cause a bumpy rash. If there is any pus in the bumps it could be a skin infection called folliculitis. Folliculitis needs antibiotics, if it just irritation from shaving, you might want to try a different product and shaving less often. I hope this helps.
