Anyone else have strange Livedo Reticularis rash in addition to red blotches that are warm to touch? Can’t find a rhyme or reason either.

The red blotches are flat and warm to touch, outlines in white. The purplish lacing (Livedo reticluaris) is like in the background.
There is some swelling as well, with pitting edema and poor blood flow it seems.

I have a video that shows it better, but I can't seem to post it.

I have been experiencing this and substantial pitting edema. Align with painful burning/tightness feeling inside legs and tenderness
