What are these spots on my arm? Do I need a GP appointment? (Photo included)

Hi all,
I’ve noticed some spots appear on my forearm (photo attached). They don’t hurt or itch, but they’ve been there a couple of days now and don’t seem to be fading. My husband thinks I should book a doctor’s appointment, but I’m not sure if I’m overreacting or if it’s something that will just clear up on its own.

Has anyone had anything similar before? Would you make a GP appointment, or just keep an eye on it for now? Any advice or shared experiences would be really appreciated, thank you!

They look a little like bug bites but if they’re not itchy I doubt it.

Have you tried taking an antihistamine to see if it helps?

Any new lotions, perfume, clothing?

Id give it a few days and if it doesn’t clear up, gets worse or you start getting any other symptoms, then I’d suggest going to your local pharmacy, they should be able to help
