What Could Discolored Area Of Skin On Legs Indicate?
My skin has turned purple in 2 areas on each of my legs There s no rash it doesn t hurt it s just visual and I don t know why it is happening It fades but it s always there it looks like a series of birthmarks that spring up but come in and out in their contrast. It s dark purple when I get out of the shower but as the day progresses it fades. I was reading about vasculitis in regards to skin issues and I am nervous because no other rash looks like what I have I wouldn t even describe it as a rash just an area of discoloration -
