What Causes White Spots From Toes To Knees After Ankle Ligament Tear?

Hi, I just tore the ligaments in my ankle 3 days ago and every time I do not have it elevated there seems to be white spots that appear from my toes to my knee. The longer I keep it down the more white the sports get and the more appear. Why is this happening??

HI
Well come to HCM
Such appearance may be very unusual because if this is muscle injury then there should be bleeding inside and must have been form bruises and not the white spots if this is so then chances of circulatory disturbances may be likely or this could be some skin manifestation, condition need to be clinically examined for proper diagnosis, take care and have a nice day.
