Painful Holes

Hello everyone,
      We are new to this community and wanted to find out what the hubby has. He has two different incidents.

1) He has redish-purplish spots on the insides of his legs and under his arms that get swollen at random times and only hurt when they are brushed against something... None of these have broken open, but they look more like a rash that swells and goes down to red dots that after a while turn in to little black spots while still being red outlined.. When you rub over it, it feels like a scab-like dry skin, but the newer ones are soft though.

2) He also has had 3 spots on his waist-line that have been opened holes... We're not sure if its the same thing and just ripped opened because of him having pants, boxers, shorts on all the time and just from the constant rubbing. The holes are painful,don't really burn or feels tingling, bleed and leak clear fluids at random times. When you rub over this one, it feels like a quick stinging then a burning sensation.

We do have an appt set up for tuesday next week, but just trying to get an idea for now...
Thanks!

He might also be allergic to something - especially something he has changed in his diet or other personal habits - laundry soap, etc - also could be psoriasis, which is quite painful

It almost sounds like bed sores. Like what people get when they don't get out of bed much. Is he over weight???
