@Breezy1 The Iodine patch works perfect for me and other family members.
I take uge doses of iodine Lugols (oraly with some yoghurt) to correct my Iodine levels and it helps me a lot.
Those bumbs could be and looks a bit like a bromine detoxification.
Look up detox effects of iodine, so they won't scare you. There are a lot of good youtube presentations...
