Brief Answer:
See details below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I read your query and here is my advice.
I see the photo you attached and you are having a red rash like scratches.
I want to know for how long have you been with it and if it is itching badly mainly at night.

It seems like something to be concerned like scabies in the first

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks.

Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
If it isn't itching then it can't be scabies.It doesn't seem like shingles or cancer.
It may be related to bad circulation on the legs. You may need to see a dermatologist.
