Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of rashes on arms and legs which is very common as dirt and moisture get trapped by your clothing and the friction that comes from sitting can cause pimple.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to keep this area clean and dry. You should apply warm compresses with soaked towel and apply vitamin C serum at night. Wear loose clothes. 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 start treatment accordingly.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
