  • Yes, I have photos but don't know whether I can attach here.  Will have a go.

    No, don't seem to be able to paste here.  Can anyone help?

    You need to click on the tree icon. select photo from desktop. upload. save. submit.

    Doesn't look very clear on here or show the whole pic.  Perhaps will be better when received.

  • Good.  That's quite clear.  Anyone seen anything quite like it after being in the garden?

    that looks like the effect you get from pressure on skin that's broken tiny blood vessels just under the surface. Have they been playing any any games with ropes, gymnastic things or anything like that.

    OH gets marks on his back like that when he's been lying under the car on rough ground.

    They look more like bruises from running into something, like fencing. have they been playing some kind of contact sport?

    well it has been knownimage

    Photodermatitis caused by something like euphorbia and sun give  discrete blisters. Rubbing against a plant  that causes inflammation would usually  give a more diffuse pattern.

     I get bruised easily, and a pattern like that would have me wondering what I had banged into. When I am diving, the weight belt blocks usually give me bruises on the hips and legs, so that after two weeks I look like I've been beaten up.
