Live in a buble: Pr is thought to represent an auto-immune skin reaction to a past illness. Usually one that preceded the first big spot by weeks. As it spreads, the pr pattern sets up & becomes recognizable.It generally self corrects within a month or two, but can get you some odd comments if the spots are seen by others.
