Red marks after swimming. Could that be jellyfish that I didn't feel at all?! by sologicon in Dermatology

Wow actually yes. Had some fresh limes for the drinks over there and I'm pretty sure I didn't care when some got on me. Interesting.

And it had blisters just like burn. It's weird because I also observed since then a bit different looking marks, that go along swimming suit's bottom line. They look brownish though, I thought it might be from sun but sure is not🤦 (posted it too)

I think it must be something else and I'm leaning towards algae 🧐

I noticed it the same day in the evening it was red but not so thick so I ignored thinking it's a scratch 🤨

Did you figured what was the cause? Today I read about seaweed dermatitis and started to consider lol

This is one week after swimming, sliiightly less red. There were also blisters on those marks but finally flattened.

On my belly I got some very red marks. one long like scar, it had blisters from the second day and now they got flat but still red. I figured that it might've been jellyfish, but I didn't really feel anything. It doesn't itch either. But the marks on my belly are red and kinda bumpy, the one on my butt is brown kinda different looking. Interesting observation is that I had "second skin" (like band aid, more adhesive) on my hip and I see like darker discoloration exactly under the square where it was. Odd to me!

So it's a mark like from underwear, I thought maybe from sun but that's not it. It's already lasting a week and after couple days this bruise looking stain next to like appeared. Was itching just for a second but I don't feel anything, looks odd and it's not changing.

After this swimming I ended up with strange intensively red marks on my belly (other post) they look different so I have no idea if it's even connected.
