Hi
Thanks for keeping me posted!
Well it could be a heat rash. It could also be a reaction to sweat. It could also be sunburn, or a reaction to sunlight. Take cool baths twice a day. Apply medicated powders with camphor in them and wear loose cotton shirts. Keep the area covered when you go out in sun. If all this does not help, then you need to see a skin specialist.
Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
It is difficult to comment without examination.
It could be like urticaria or hives. The swellings or wheals produced after itching can be pale (of skin color) or red. Urticaria is usually triggered by allergens, such as drugs, foods, insect bites, inhaled substances, in response to sunlight, cold, heat, stress, exercise, or a viral infection. Other common allergens are pollen, mold, dust, pet dander, or cosmetics. Since you experienced an itch, just go over these possibilities in your mind. Something may strike you. In many cases, hives clear up themselves and don’t require diagnosis or treatment. However if they persists you may need to see a specialist called an allergist to determine what is causing the reaction.
It could also be petechiae. Petechiae are pinpoint-sized red dots under the surface of the skin.
The commonest cause of petechiae is a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia).
They can also result from autoimmune disorders, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, bone marrow disorders such as leukemia, inflammation of the veins, as a side effect of certain medications including the vaccine itself, viral infections, such as EBV and septicemia or infection in blood. A complete blood count, urine examination and a blood culture may be required to reach a diagnosis.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
