red rash spots anyone

Red rashes and spots on tops of hands and all over legs, anyone else I've not been diagnosed with Lupus but am running out of ideas?

Started early this year with one round mark size of fingertip on top half of leg but took no notice. Then I noticed a red rash raised slightly on top of my hand, stinging nettle type.

I was given cream and steroid cream over the phone appointment. Nothing and now I've got red spots dotted here and there over my legs, biggest is fingertip one than they vary to tiny dots to a mass of spots in various areas.

I got one or two itch a bit but nothing much and has not done so for weeks but the spots are growing in numbers.

Go back to GP and report lack of effect and see if you can get an appointment with a dermatologist or immunologist.
