[|Human|] My boyfriend has reoccurring bumps which look like pimples/ingrown hairs, they appear on his thigh and frequently in his nostril .. they get very red, swollen, agitated and painful. He has hepatitis C but has not had any treatment - what could this be? I live with him and have none of these symptoms, nor does our room mate.
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. Forum. As diagnosis is confirmed, so these multiple bumps are due to Hepatitis C as these are sequela of this disease. Hepatitis C has same laboratory features like Hepatitis B, but aminotransferase level fluctuate more and to be lower, especially in patients with long-standing disease. These bumps are violations flat topped pa pules and plaques. In my opinion consult a physician ad get his opinion as this seems to be a case of Lichen plans. Sexual contact spread the disease (unprotected). Good luck.
