Hi,

The reddish rash on both ankle lower leg would be a form of purpura.. ......... progressive pigmented purpuric dermatosis.,also called Schamberg's disease. It is a capillaritis. There may be brown macules for in patches and progress to spread towards upper part pf legs. There may not be any symptoms. The condition is benign. However,you consult dermatologist.Vitamin C and K may be taken for long time. Thrombophob oint with mild steroid cream might improve the condition. I feel, you may be improved after few months. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
