More information on "COVID Rash"

I have had rough darkened patches on my hands and arms. I show to doctors and they are dismissive. I think they just think it’s old people skin. I know the difference.
I had an itchy rash on my back as I was getting over Covid, which cleared and has not returned.

How interesting - I too had a rash on my back before tests were available - and I think I may have had COVID very early on. I traveled for work 3/9-12/2020, when we all thought just gloves and handwashing would keep us safe. Planes, airports, conference - and all in close contact. After I was tired, had a sore throat and runny nose and then the rash on my back that lasted for months. Your post makes me think that I did have COVID then, and that it was the second case confirmed w/ a test in March 2023 that resulted in the leg rashes. Thanks for confirming it. And yes, doctors are dismissive of so many symptoms even when we know our bodies best and have symptoms never before we had COVID.
