Suggest Medication For Purple Bruise Like Rash O Arm
I have noticed a purple, bruise looking, perfect ring shape circle with a slightly raised white center (no pimple or pus or infection noted) on my back right arm, and three smaller circles on my left mid-back. It does not itch nor does it look like a rash no redness.I can find no fang marks such as a spider bite would leave. what could this be?
