Molluscum contagiosum
Bumps appeared on my legs a few years ago which would erupt into a painful blister. These were diagnosed by a dermatologist as molluscum contagiosum. They were treated with cryotherapy, but they never fully went away. The doctor also suggested using Aldara cream to treat, which will heal individual bumps but it also hasn't stopped the spread of the disease.
