What are these weird red spots I keep getting?
Posted , 3 users are following.
These spots started up a few years ago. They would show up every once in awhile for what seems to be no reason at all. They will keep getting worse over 2-7 days, and sometimes last 3 weeks. Sometimes they will be extremely small and minor and last about a week. The photos I'm attaching (no nudity of any kind) are from last time, just a month ago, and that was the worst they ever got.
Every now and then a few may itch a bit, but usually I don't even notice I have these marks again until I happen to be looking at my legs.
They cover my legs, and if they get bad they will go a bit up my sides as well. Last time they got so high they were right next to my armpits, but the higher they go the less pronounced they are.
The last image is from today as they are starting up again already, and if you look close you can see some "scars" where the markings were last month (to the day actually).
Please feel free to ask me any question(s) that can help figure this out, I don't take things personal or become embarrassed so I will be truthful.

Could be dermatitis herpetiformis. You may have coeliac disease (auto immune reaction to gluten).
