What Could It Be If The Child Had Brown Spots On Hand And Arm On Which All Natural Skin Detox Failed?

My son came home from the ball field Saturday and flat brownish in color spots or stains appeared on his hand and arm. I thought it was dirt at first but won't wash off. I've tried an all natural skin detox on the spots and they are still there. Any thoughts? He is 4.

Hi
Welcome to healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

The spots are likely to be hematoma sustained due to fall and mud grit particles getting inside it causing tattoo.
There is no cause for concern.

Take Care
Best Regards
