What Causes Red Spots On Leg After An Injury To Patella?

I fell on my knee and injured my patella 2 mos ago...after that I developed red spots on the same leg and also what looked like a prickly heat rash. The rash spread to my upper chest and neck. Treated with Prednisone. Now I still have the rash on my upper legs, still itchy. What could this be?
