Granny's gone and done it again

If somebody had a reaction to a change in laundry detergent, wouldn't it be in more than one place?

Switched our detergent and the same day we switched it, I did a load, and put on clean pants. Soon afterwards I began itching. but its only one one part of my leg, down my leg. Not anywhere else. I'd think it also be on my T-shirt, and other things.
Quite the coincidence. May just be that one area of skin is more sensitive than other areas.
I found out decades ago that I cannot use dryer sheets. Shirts and jeans were fine. Undies a big no no. 😳
 
nope.

maybe its a bug bite ?

i have no idea why a detergent or a food reaction would stick only to the underside of my leg, and not spread throughout my body
Hives is an allergic reaction. Back of your leg has more contact when you sit or maybe crossing your legs. It's a mystery. Doesn't sound too serious, but you can get sensitized to some allergens and the reactions become more severe with each new contact.

Ah, gotcha. Makes me wonder, I'd like to have a answer. I like answers.

You may never know the why. Most dont. Just treating symptoms i the best you can do unless it interferes with breathing or get infected then you will have to go see a dr.
