What Causes Dark Red Spots Beneath The Skin And Purple Discoloration In Fingernails?
I have been having random dark red spots forming beneath the skin for the past day or two? I am unsure of what is causing this. On my right knee, I have something that looks like scratches in the form of a zigzag , and I have no idea to where this came from. My fingernails have turned purple within the past hour or so, and after I started walking, the color returned to normal. I am very much a hypochondriac and haven t gotten this checked out yet.
Hi Welcome. I have gone through your query. It is difficult to say what it is without examination, kindly either upload the pictures or see local doctor. It might be due to allergy, but need to be confirmed. Hope this helps. Take care
