What Could The Rash On Ankles And Legs Be?
I have this rash that is on the tops of my feet and has spread to my ankles and legs. Mainly small dark brown spots but some have merged into dark areas of skin. They do not itch or hurt at all but my feet are now starting to swell and I don't know if they are related.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is not itching or any discomfort, then this could be due to some systemic disease and diabetes need to be ruled out, as matter of fact skin lesion demands the clinical observation and this is the only way of clinical diagnosis because this is kind of art of looking, so better to get done the clinical examination to ruled out the possibility of diabetes induced skin lesion, take care.
