What Causes Recurring Red Blotches On The Legs?
I recently had Shingles (had the shot last year) and one month later I noticed red blotches on legs that later peeled and repeated the cycle for a month. I went to Dr. and they just said a form of Dermatitis,but that wasn,t enough for me. Could it be connected to Shingles? I m using Desonide 0.05

Hello,
As a first line management, you can apply low potency steroid creams like Betamethasone for symptomatic relief. If the lesion persists, it is better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
