I have had a similar rash on several occasions. A Friend sugested it might be from Lyme (had similar rash) and to try taking a magnisum supplement. The Magnesium cured it very fast. I go in for Lyme testing later this week.

I just got a rash just like that while on vacation in Las Vegas. The first day i thought it was just a sunburn or heat rash but then the next day it looked just like that. It only lasted a few days.

Lyme disease rash is more of a “bulls eye” look.

My rash started on one ankle and a few weeks later the other ankle. Now it is moving up the back of my calves.

I have been tested for auto immune disease but the ANA was negative. I also started have dry eye just before the rash appeared. I think I have had this rash for almost 6 weeks with no real improvement. Some days I think it is looking better and then the next day looks worse. My Dr said it was vascular. i also tried anti-fungle at first withe no result. Please if any know what this is please let me know.

It could be scabies. The tracks look like their burrows.

No, Alan. The doctor suspected that the color and scratchiness of the yarn caused my rash.

I’ve had this several times – it’s been in warm weather, not cold. It happened most seriously in Australia after walking along the seashore area with both legs affected ankles to knees, a bit less so in Brazil in a Sao Paulo suburb and a much milder version when camping near Bath in the UK. The pharmacist’s best guess in Aus was sandflies, but nobody’s committing themselves.
