I have this trail of bumps on my ankles.... what is it?

Question

I have this trail of bumps on my leg. Originally it was one huge bump. I thought it was just a large mosquito bite, becuase i had the same thing on my toe. So the one on the toe went away. But i scratched the one on my ankle. But then it started to kinda.. spread and get like ajagged pattern on the edges. And then it spred down in a thin line down my foot. Just about and inch. And now i have a singel bump further up my foot. And i have some connected bumps on my other shin and no the back of my other ankle.

My mom mentioned scabies.. which ughh.. i dont want. But it doesnt inch persisitently and tis not a bad itch when it does. Also it is slightly redder but not bold red and it spread. Graduallly getting bigger. I dont think taht it is poison ivy becuase we used the antibiotic cream for poison ivy that we have and it didnt stop it.. wlel, i guess i dont know yet. I just started using it yesturday.

But does anyone have any idea of what this might be?

Answer 1

I'm going with poison ivy or some other contact dermititis. Just because your antibiotic cream didn't clear it up doesn't mean it's not poison ivy. All the cream does is keep it from getting infected. Try some calamine lotion on it.
