Medium Sized Oval Patch On Lower Leg, Red Circles Around It. What To Do For This ?
Hi,
I have a medium sized oval patch on my lower leg. It is around 1.25 inches in diameter. It is non itchy, just getting very unsightly. It started over with a few white dots under the skin with red circles around it. I assumed this was a harmless pigmentation of the skin issue but it is now getting bigger and has a shiny surface and I am getting worried about it.
Many thanks,
AAAA
