1.These bumps are permanently present.
2.They only flare up somtimes.
3. When they are inflamed, they look like puffed rice imbeded into my skin (I have a photo from the last time I visited my parents).
4.It is painful but nothing that stops me from leading my life.
5.The first time I got these bumps they burst open and were extremely painful.
I'm just looking for possibilities for my doctor to investigate. My allergist and GP thought the bumps were really weird but didn't have any idea what they were.

It seems to me that it is herpes zoster. Go to a dermatologist just to be sure and dont let the blisters burst by scratching because it could make it worst. Handwash after touching it and please refrain from touching it because you can transfer it to other parts of your body like your eyes, mouth or genitals it is very contagious.
If it is indeed herpes then you should make yourself fit and healthy because it is a dormant virus that you can only supress but you can not kill it. So it will be there inside you waiting for you to get weak.
Please go to a specialist to have it treated. Usually they give Zovirax or Acyclovir for that or some pain reliever to help you with the pain.
Good day.

This will be the weird answer you get. Most doctors will over look worms. Most hook worms will bring a rash or hives to the surface.
Over 92% don't know that they have worms. Go to the website "hook worms". It's very common.

It sounds like shingles. It usually runs along a nerve. Check it out here:
