Suggest Remedy For Rashes On Legs

Hi, after a shower or exercising, parts of my legs and chest turn a pinkish red. My whole legs don t red, just specific spots. It looks like a rash but it doesn t itch or spread. Some of these areas stay slightly discolored all the times. I didn t always have this problem, it started for the first time about 6 months ago

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It might be Pigmented purpuric Dermatosis which is mainly of cosmetic concern. Have Vitamin C tablets daily for a week. If you do not get any improvement, consult your Dermatologist.
If your rash becomes extensive or it ulcerate, immediately consult your Dermatologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
