Further details and testing needed

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. However, I would insist you to upload an image of the red (cells) that appears over her knees. Also mention how long this has been occurring and what other complaints she has. I would also need to ask you if her blood has been checked for ANA (antinuclear antibody) levels and thyroid profile. If not, I would insist you to get the blood tests done and to upload the reports thereafter. Based on them I would guide you further.

I will await your response. Let me know if I could help further.

Regards
