It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. What you described warrants and in person evaluation. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!

Erythema nodosum comes to mind. It can follow a strep infection or other infection & occurs in presence of inflammatory bowel disease or as a side effect of a medication. You can see your MD,or dermatologist but I favor consulting a rheumatologist if you can see one ASAP.
