A member asked:

I have a line that is down my leg after going to the beach. it's light brown, not raised or itchy. also i have a rash on my upper thigh. what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Rash: I would wonder about insect bites(sand flea, fly). If spreading redness or burning develops, consult your physician for evaluation and advice.
