Q: Ugh! Sensitive Skin! Need Advice

Ugh.... I have always dealt with sensitive skin from my childhood days. Bubble bath would make me break out in rashes.
This is GROSS.... but, I got ringworm from a tanning bed... YUCKY! I make sure I spray the bed off VERY good prior to getting in now.
I have eczema on the backs of my arms.
Anyway, the fronts of my lower legs started itching last night and now I have the "white flat bumps" under the skin. Not a huge break out... just 4-5 on each leg. My mom (also skin sensitive) ended up getting some kind of skin rash from the nursing home where my Grandma is.
Of course, I am freaking out thinking she might have something contagious and I have it now. I am going on vacation soon and I don't want to end up in bad shape.
Any Ideas what this might be? These bumps are not raised at all. It almost looks like a scar tissue. The area seems warm to the touch.
Appreciate any help.
