Itchy chest, (red blotches)

Just noticed this recently, i go to the gym 2-3 times a week and run besides that, thought it was down to this, any ideas, its not too bad or too noticeable, but just reckoned someone must have come across it before....(Apologies if this in wrong forum)

I sometimes get something like that after a particularly hot shower. Goes away after about twenty minutes. I think it's just your skin reacting to a quick temperature change.
If you think there might be something more to it, it wouldn't do any harm to run it by your GP next time you're in.

Yeah thanks I do tend to steam room\swim afterwards etc , was thinking its the frequency of it, sometimes i get a kind of needles sensation before taking a shower or during one (very rarely though), thanks again...
