Skin rash
Only on legs, very few spots around the trunk. The spots seem to be healing slowly but are taking too long. It's been 7 or 8 months so far. They itch only when I'm resting so particularly at night time.
At first I thought they were insect bites so I didn't really do anything. It got worse within a few weeks and I didn't realise it until I saw blood stains on the sheets and understood that I scratch them in the night till they bled. I've avoided scratching which was a huge task and explains how they've healed but the healing process is still very slow. Even after being healed, the scars remain like dark patches.
The picture is of around my ankle. A few healed and the other a completely unhealed one.
