They have a circle of redness around them... Is it from shaving? The bumps if I get them from shaving don't usually look like this?

That could be acne or an allergic reaction

It looks like it could be an allergic reaction. Or maybe ingrown hairs. Had you changed anything about your shaving/skincare routine recently before they appeared?

It could be because of the heat I usually get bumps like those during the summer

I did start using a new shaving cream.
But I think they were there a few days before I got the new cream.
I use to get them maybe 2-3 years ago too.
They don't hurt at all. Lol but I honestly refer to them resembling as little nipples because they have a circle around them and a little part in the center. It could be from shaving because they're no where else on my body

I agree it could be the heat of its hot! If not then ingrown hairs. But if it doesn't clear up within a week I would go and see a doctor!

If it isn't an allergic reaction or a shaving rash to get it checked out.

I get allergic reactions all the time. (I'm allergic to grass lol) and they don't last that long. It would only stay in your system for a day or two then leave but that's it. I think you should go to the dr.

Go see a dermatologist. I had bumps like these a while back and when I went to get them checked out it turned out I have an auto immune disorder. Basically your skin attacks itself, resulting in bumps. If it's the same thing as me, the doctor should give you medicine and they will be gone in a few weeks.

I know I use to get staph infection, and that these little guys would come around my ankles.
I don't have staph infection right now though.
I will tell my mom again to see if she will take me to the doctor because I've had them for 1-2 weeks
Thank you everybody:)

Almost looks like chicken pox... Are they itchy at all? Though I guess if they are isolated on your legs it would have to be a contact issue (allergy, toxic plant, insect bite/sting, etc)... Definitely see a doctor to get a firm diagnosis, because it may be autoimmune, or a reaction to something in your environment.
I just had a sudden thought: do you have a cat or dog? If a pet got into something that irritates your skin, it could linger and keep causing a reaction. If you have a pet, maybe give them a bath just to be safe.
