What Do Red Spots On The Legs Indicate?
I was doing yard work late this evening and when I came inside, I noticed several small red dots on my legs. I had been wearing shorts and brushing up against bushes. Now the red spots are brighter and larger with whitish area circling them. The spots do not itch and are not raised. What do you think this could be caused by? What should I do now?

Hi,
Your symptoms seem to be related to contact dermatitis due to direct contact with the bushes.
I suggest you take antihistamines such as Cetirizine.
I also suggest you use steroid cream for local relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
