What Causes Random Pink Spots On Skin?
I keep getting pink spots showing up on my skin randomly. Usually top of feet, palms of hands, wrists, ankles. They are not raised at all. Just look like discoloration in dark pink. They itch horribly. They last hour or so and then go away Sometimes round, sometimes crescent or horseshoe shaped or squiggly line

Hello, such evanescent lesions appear to be either allergic or insect bite hypersensitivity.
You need to look for any chemical exposure/visit to a new place, if any.
For the lesions, take Tab cetrizine 10 mg at bedtime
Apply dermocalm lotion on the lesions
Review after 5 days.
The lesions should subside till then.
Thanks
Take care.
