This might sound like a joke answer, but it's not... Does he shave his legs?

Reply:well does he shave? If he does then switch shaving creams. If not then his skin his irritated by somthing. Clean the sheets and see if thats it.
Reply:They're probably acne-type skin infections that will go away with time. However, there is a condition called erythema nodosum that is associated with autoimmune diseases such as sarcoidosis which might produce large red tender lumps around the shin area that you might wish to look up.
