Leg bumps: These are often caused by a substance called keratin which blocks the pores of hair follicles in the legs. Instead of seeing tiny hairs, you develop bumps. Moisturizing treatment often helps. A dermatologist can verify the diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.

I have a small cluster of bumps on my thigh. They are in a perfect circle. The spot is red and is very itchy. Could this be a spider bite or something? It is slightly raised and has gotten a little bit bigger since I first noticed it a few days ago.
