Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Please upload some photos of the rash so I can have a look at it. You can do that by the upload button in the page where you posted the question.
Also give me some more information about it, if you think something else can be relevant for example if it is itchy, if you have other symptoms, if you have taken anything that might have caused an allergic reaction like medicines or foods, etc.
Looking forward to your follow-up question.

Brief Answer:
Contact dermatitis
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I reviewed your photo. It looks like you had a contact dermatitis maybe from the contact with the grass and your skin reacted with that rash. The fact that you have the rash in your legs only, and that it is itchy, proves that.
I'd recommend using a steroid cream like Bethametasone cream twice a day. It should start getting better within 24 hours. Use it until it clears completely. Also try to avoid direct contact with the grass again.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
