What is going on with my leg?

Am on a short break in London at the mo. Walked lots yesterday (blisters to prove it).

When we got back to the hotel last night I saw this on my leg.

It looks like a mass of broken capillaries? Lots of pinprick dots. The right is much worse. There is a small amount on the left.

Was a little itchy while we were out, but nothing now. No sign of a bite? I was wearing full length jeans.

If it had worsened during night I would have sought medical advice today, but it seems the same.

Anyone had this?

Looks like you have rubbed it - were you wearing jeans?

I agree- looks like friction from your jeans. Hikers never wear denim because it's so abrasive. Bung some salvon on it and don't wear jeans on long walks

Thanks for the replies.

I do agree - must have been friction from my jeans - it has faded a bit now.

I was just a bit worried- as I take warfarin and my ankles had swollen a lot..
