What Causes Red Dots On My Legs After Eating Fish?
Hello. I have red dots on my legs (front of calf (shin area) only). They do not itch, hurt and etc. I did go for dinner tonight and had octopus, clams, mussels, salmon. Could I be having a reaction to fish? I have never had any form of a reaction before? Appreciate your time.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that it is a reaction if you noticed the lesions soon after eating.
You can try using an oral antihistamine to see if this helps. These are available over the counter eg benadryl, claritine, zyrtec
You can monitor for any changes.
I hope this helps
