Red blotches on thighs.

[freja]

The thing is I get red blotches on my thighs/calves when in the shower. I don't rub my skin nor do I use any products that irritate my skin. The blotches are not raised and they don't itch. They go away about 10-15 minutes after I've gotten out of the shower.

Does anybody else get this, is it normal?

Its normal.

Very normal, its the heat going somewhere it doesnt normally go, unlike face, arms, etc.

[mumble]

Totally normal. I get the same when walking fast/far in hot weather. It's heat.

I get that too and panicked. But it fades like you said and it is the hot water. Doesn't even need to be that hot either.
