Hello,
For such bumps on legs, erythema nodosum is one possibility which should be ruled out. Erythema nodosum is a type of skin inflammation that is located in a certain portion of the fatty layer of skin.It results in reddish, painful, tender lumps most commonly located in the front of the legs below the knees.
I would recommend a physician/dermatologist’s evaluation. Treatment depends on the confirmation of diagnosis.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
You are correct in stating that internet searches suggest dermatitis as a possible side effect of this class of medications.
I have no idea if this is the case, but it sounds possible.
What you should do is to go to the FDA website and fill in a form stating a potential side effect of the medication. Send it in.
In the meantime it would seem prudent to discontinue the medication and see what happens.
ah i got three on my right hand to their everywhere.
I will say I went back to my dr. for stomache pain cause it would feel like something would stab me from inside out, she prescibed omeprazole 20mg, she thought it was indegestion, I said I thought it was gas. I have not been taking it regularly like I should have. I have just read the side effects and it says "red swollen blistered or peeling skin" but Ive never had a reaction to any kind of medicine. However the stomache pain did finally subside now it jus looks like im bloated all the time, I'm pretty sure I still have gas but it stopped stabing me at least.
