Red blotches on skin?

I was just wondering if this is an exercise/sweat problem or something different. I have just started doing proper diet and exercise in the last week. Since ive started i have gotten these strange raised red blotches on my skin, theres a couple on my back, about 12 on my stomach and 1 quite big one on the side of my knee. They are not itchy but are a concern as they've only appeared in the last week. I am not allergic to anything either, so i'm just wondering if others have had this due to sweating from exercising?

I will note i have done a lot of exercise before e.g. zumba, walking, swimming and never had this and will be going to the doctors on monday to get it checked out.

Thank you in advance :)

    Maybe your skin is reacting to your sweat? Try wearing something that breathes better.
