Erythema nodosum is correct. Remember it is not always just limited to the shins and that in the later stages, granulomata may be conspicuous.

Septal and nodular granulomatous panniculitis. The clinical information involving arms and legs would suggest nodular vasculitis, however there is no vasculitis. So it maybe erythema nodosum....

Predominantly septal (and spilling into lobules)granulomatous panniculitis. History and septal predominance suggest E.Nodosum. However not seen such frank granuloma's in EN before. Worth excluding infective causes (fungi/ mycobacteria) though like one would in any granulomtous inflammation.
