A member asked:

I have itchy white bumps all over my upper legs. they weren't there when i went to sleep. is it a skin allergy?

Dr. John Chiu answered

Hard to tell: There are many causes for itchy bumps but the fact that they are confined to the upper legs suggests that the problem may be from a contact allergen. Did you wear any new pants, underwear, or skirt within the past 3-7 days?
