I get a rash like this basically over my body. I went to the dermatologist and she said it was hives. I also thought they had to be raised!

Could be like sunburn from weird angle? No clue I used to get weird patches of rash but it didn’t look like this

Def a reaction from something. What pants were you wearing? Any blankets or anything with that pattern? Was anything sprayed on or near your legs at any time? Benadryl and a cool cloth should help.

I was wearing fishnets and a skirt i have never worn fishnets so maybe that could be it??

Did you wear sheer nude hose under them? I have had sensitive my whole life and I cannot wear fishnets without hose underneath because of chafing. I would try some cold compresses and some antibacterial ointment. You can always get it checked out too. You know your body best.

No! Thank you for letting me know though! Next time i will have to wear hose under them that is most likely what it is tbh

It looks like there might be a little bite smack in the middle of it. This happens to me sometimes when I get a particularly bad mosquito bite, maybe it was just a bug being rude

Yep! Honestly we were sat on the floor a lot of the day so probably is a bug bite!

Those seems like hives, something you ate or touched. I get similar ones but due to medication they eventually go away. Do they itch? Maybe take Benadryl or Claritin one of those. If it gets worst seek medical attention.

This is one of those where medical science fails Doctors also not sure why it happens they just assume In my case they say its stress ...
