When i get into the ocean my legs start to sting?!


Question: When i get into the ocean my legs start to sting!?
I am in Gulf Shores, Alabama, and when i get into the ocean, after a while, it stings my legs!. I get out of the water and there are streaks on my legs!. It's not a jellyfish, and it's not seaweed!. I don't know what it is, but it happens every time i get in the water!. I have had to skip swimming for two days just because of it!. It stings for 20 minutes!. I have tryed to put meat tenderizer on it, but it didn't help!. Does anyone know what this is, and if you do, is there anything i can go and buy to get rid of the sting, or any home remedies!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
