Red marks on skin :(

[-crookedtail-]

Recently I've noticed some red marks appearing on my skin, been there for a few weeks. I first thought it was just dry skin and have been using e45 cream to dry and get rid but they seem to be getting worse. The picture below is on my side but I have another on my neck which looks like a hickey which isnt idea for work.




Any ideas, am I dying?

Sore? Itchy? Could possibly be a burn or bruise? Weird to have it in two different places if it's something external, though.

My dad's psoraisis looks/has looked a bit like that sometimes. Hope it's not that for your sake 'cos psoraisis sucks.

Fortunately they dont hurt me but I have scratched at the one on my neck though. Trying to avoid doing it and it is better with the e45 cream.

Finally dragged myself to the doctors today as its been getting worse.Apparently it is likely Pityriasis rosea which is quite common and will clear up itself apparently!

Thanks for the help guys
