Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have noticed red dots appearing on both of my arms. They have white halos around them. They are not raised much and do not itch. What could this be? I first noticed one dot on top of my daughters foot yesterday afternoon and by last night I noticed the same thing on me! Mine are spreading but she still is the one dot.
It may be erythema multiforme lesions. It may be due to viral infections or drug allergy etc. Apple moisturizer cream locally twice a day for five days. Avoid the drug noticed causing allergy. If no improvement please consult with your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
