I had heavy red rash on my lower legs last summer after flying to Rome. I attributed it to long flight and sitting. Today I rode 2 and1/2 hours in the car and tonight the same rash is around my ankles and legs! What is going on and should I see a physician?
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
According to your complaints it could be pigmented purpuric dermatoses due to prolonged standing and sitting. I would recommend you to consult a doctor for the same.
