What Could Itchy U Shaped Red Marks And Rashes On Legs Indicate?

Hello, I ve recently been suffering from some unknown allergies (even after being tested) and I woke up this morning to see that both of my legs have U shaped red marks on them. They itch but it seems to have gone done now that I ve taken some allergy medicine. I was just wondering if it is a different type of allergy rash or something else. Thanks, RAF

Hi,

As per your query you have symptoms of red marks and rashes on legs which is very common due to allergic reaction and due to dirt and moisture get trapped by your clothing and friction.

I would suggest you to keep this area clean and dry. Avoid itching and pricking rashes. You should apply warm compresses with soaked towel and apply vitamin C serum at night. If condition doesn't get better then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor will examine physically along with blood test and sample for lab test, and will start treatment accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
