Hello,

These red/pink dots have been appearing on my thigh and lower abdomen. They stick around for 3-4 days and disappear. But new ones keep appearing. When I touch them, they don't hurt but with clothing friction they have a slight burning sensation.

I have been to the doctor and he said he doesn't know what it is, and it's probably because my legs are hairy. But I have never had these in the past. Also these red dots don't happen on hair follicles. They happen where there are no follicles.
