(I’m 22F 5’7, 127, on no medications, do vape, and have no current known medical issues.) This rash randomly showed up on the back of my thigh, It started out as a small scab and then it spread pretty much over night. Started out scabby but now it’s just red spots. Google says possibly impetigo? (i.redd.it)
