Does anyone know what these spots are?

These spots have appeared on my mum over the last couple of days. More and more seem to be appearing every time she looks. They cover her stomach, sides, top of her legs, and the sides of her back. A few on the top of the arms, but not many.

They don't itch, hurt, and she doesn't feel unwell. Has had chickenpox as a child.

Tried to get a photo - but they're much more dramatic in person as they're just everywhere! Look bigger than a rash.

Best to get it checked incase it is contagious. Is she in any other meds as could be an allergy or side effect. If I take Amoxyl I get big spots around my mouth & chin. Antibiotics can cause a rash as a side effect. Have you changed washing powders/ fabric softener or has she used a different body wash or body lotion?

Could it be heat rash? It looks a bit like it.
