Have had these pimple/bite looking things all over my thighs and legs for a few months..?

and there not going away, they itch, doctor told me they were bed bug or dust mite bites but they%26#039;ve been in the same spot for over 3 months, no sign of them getting better, they are not pimples but they look like pimples after being squeezed (thats the best way i can describe it). Dont know how to get rid of them, they look really ugly.





thnx|||If they get really big and nasty, they could be a boil, which you would possibly need antibiotics for. Try looking up boils on google, and see if that is what it seems like. Other wise maybe ingrown hairs?|||If they look like this:

It could be keratosis pilaris. I have a few patches and I normally treat with mild scrubbing and moisturizer. The moisturizing helps the most. They could also be in-grown hairs.





Anyway, the site below says that KP looks like acne and one of the places it%26#039;s found is on the thighs, so this might be it?





Good luck!|||its hidradenitis suppurativa.
