bumps/nodules on top of feet!! help??

Ive had these bumps on my feet that have also been referred to as subcutaneous nodules by my GP.Started five years ago and every summer they really "come out" Was referred to a dermatologist and have seen one a year for the last five years. I was given two biopsies over this time period, checked specifically for HIV, lichen planus(hep c), and fungal. Negative for all three but results did show a "lymphohistiocytic inflammatory cell infiltrate". I cant seem to get a doctor to care enough to help me get rid of it because it is not bothersome other than in appearance. But every summer when others are looking forward to flip flops, i am dreading mine. Curiosity is killing this cat, someone please tell me what it looks like to you or if you know anyone with a similar problem.

thank you for referring that website. it was very informative and a little reassuring that its probably something i can get a handle on if i can just figure out whats casuing it. As for the panniculitis, why don't you think a dermatologist has come out and said that?, and better yet, of all the different kinds there are im still not sure another dermatologist would do me any good. For every biopsy they do i get no answers and an ugly scar in its place and im starting to think id rather have bumpy feet.
