Hi,
The rash or discoloration could be an allergic reaction to crab or insect bite. Kindly rule out any other rashes on the body. Antihistamines and local application of soothing lotions such as calamine can be used. Kindly rule out any other symptoms such as fever.
Hope that was helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
