i have these red dots on my legs, they are red in the middle and have white rings around the outside of the red dot. i have had lymes disease when i was little and i was thinking maybe it could be that acting up again, but i also thought it could be just a allergic reaction, but i don't know. im worried about it, i have seen them on my chest area, my legs and arms, it has been happening for at least a month now and it wont go away. do you have any idea what it could be? also they are small sized dots.

Hi there. Welcome to the forum! This condition can be urticaria or drug rash. You need to take levocetrizine at night and apply calamine lotion for 3 weeks. Along with this stop all the medicines for sometime. Please keep us posted for any further queries. Hope this helps you. Take care and regards!
