Inflamed, Itchy Rashes On Legs After Coming In Contact With An Elephant. What Could This Be?
Hi, I am in Thailand and have a rash develop on my legs. I first noticed it after riding an elephant in Chiang Mai 9 days ago. The rash has not gone and may be spreading. The rash looks like tiny bites (smaller than mosquito bites), are itchy, inflamed and also some develop pimple white heads. Any idea what it could be?
