Hi - I recently developed a light pink rash at the back of my lower right thigh and am wondering what could have caused it.

The rash appears like urticaria which is usually raised and itchy. Urticaria can be due to many possible causes. Most commonly drug-induced, food- induced, viral infection or idiopathic ( Nil obvious trigger).
You might benefit from oral anti-histamines ( if you arent allergic to them). However do consult a doctor if you experience any breathing difficulty/ fever/ worsening rashes. Hope this helps.
