Also were my shorts were is unaffected what if it's Mrsa or meningitis?

[lizzie29]

If you had either of those you'd be feeling seriously ill. Do the dots look under the surface or are they raised?

[Em.ma]

I would say under x thank you scared this Is the start though

Hi. Try not to worry, if it was either of these 2 things you would feel very I'll. Mrsa as far as I'm aware can only be contracted through an open wound. It sounds to me like a heat rash or an allergy? X

[lizzie29]

I was thinking heat rash. If you work in a factory, is there anything that could have come into contact with your leg? How about having a cool shower or put your leg in a cool bath - whether it's heat or allergy, this should help. Then gently pat it dry.

if it something at work that could be serious? im scared
i dont know if their raised or not

[lizzie29]

Keep an eye on it and see how it goes tonight. If it's still there in the morning you could nip to the chemist. The more you focus on it, the more it'll probably itch! You're not ill, so try to distract yourself.

If the skin is dry that can cause you to break out in spots. I have gotten spots from dry skin before. I got a rash once just from being too warm.
If they are raised you'll feel them with your finger tips :)

Other Leg without rash is fine that's why I'm scared hurts to walk on to :( but hurts same still

[Anxious_gal]

Oh I hate when one symptom seems to be related to another :( It drives my health anxiety nuts. Could it just be unrelated muscle pain from doing a lot of walking?
I hope you get some sleep and wake up feeling better.
