What Causes Red Spots On Legs And Breaking Out In Lower Legs?

When walking on a track for an all night relay, my lower legs break out. They are red from the top of my ankle sock to about half way up to my knee. Last year they both stayed red for several day. Could it be my socks, or the material the track is made of? What can I do to try and prevent it during the hot, humid weather of Missouri?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction. I recommend to use antihistamines such as Cetirizine 10m daily to relieve the red spots. I also suggest using Calamine lotion for local application.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
