Q: i have bumps under the dermis lay of my ankle/foot and the area has turn purple ish red the nodules are moveable and tender/itchy?

: I assume these are not superficial veins. Are they insect bites which tend to be itchy? A physician or dermatologist would have to inspect them in order to advise you. In the meantime you could try applying a cortisone ointment.

Hi. The tops of my feet and my ankles are extremely itchy. Its a red rash, no bumps, just small red dots that breaks out on my skin. Really uncomfortable. It tends to flare up at night. I took some photos if there is a need for it.

Since few days I have red bumps over my body. Mostly on stomach, chest, back shoulder, ankle at foot, and few on penis skin and its very itchy.

I have tiny bumps on top of both feet and ankle. No redness, no drainage. Just itchy I can almost scratch them off.

I am wondering what are these red and dry skin like bumps? They are not itchy unless but its on contact. They are on my legs and one or two on my foot
