You answered my question before I could ask. Thanks. :)
This symtom of red leg or discoloration of lower legs is so common and I see it everywhere. There is a reason why doctors don't know what causes it. Plenty medication and treatment will not stop this until it gets really bad. The root cause is the poor diet of eating too much sugary foods, fruit and plant carbohydrate foods !! Cut out and lower these foods and replace with good whole fat and protein foods will clear it and possibly many other chronic problems. I'm living proof. Good luck with all your health journeys
Had a surgery on my right quad torn quadriceps. Post surgery they left the cast way too tight and now I have a brown discoloration on only my right side from where the pressure was. Can I get that corrected some how?? Guess I have to make a appointment.
Thank you so much.
1:35 I've been dealing with this problem for a few years now. I have swelling and darkening around the inside of my ankles and on the shins. A couple of weeks ago I accidentally kicked into a bag of tools on the floor as I was walking past it. A screwdriver was sticking out and it gouged into my shin. I didn't think I hit it that hard, but it peeled back the skin like peeling an orange. Because of the fluid buildup under the skin, I guess it is compromised and not as strong as it should be. Ughh. It left a nice big hole in my shin. It's healed up, but it was a hassle to deal with for a while.
So yeah. It's time to get this underlying condition fixed once and for all.
My mom did surgery in her lower back, knee replacement, and hip replacement. Since then she has spotty discoloration. It's like dot dot all over her lower leg. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks
Thank you explaining but you didn’t explain what to do ?

This world never stops to surprise me. My wife recently pointed it out to me that my ankles have darkened. I was alarmed and investigated it, turns out it can be a sign of a bad heart. I’m really panicking now. I have dark skins on my ankles on both feet. I’m worried this is a sign of something bad going to happen.
I begged for treatment, yet doc's here are reactive rather then proactive, my ankle got blood doc poked it said if the yellow shows then it is fine, I said fine this is not normal my parent do not have this,,, I have a problem still to this day they will not do anything. Poke Poke I walk everyday , tons of exercise dvd's and no clue why this happened do not smoke or drink (probably should start parents did both and they did not have this) what the heck and it hurts like a bruise very painful
Same problem is to me
Ok, so now I won't sleep, thanks for that, and no solutions either.
My leg discoloration is bad. I got treated for my veracose veins and spider veins . Now how do I get rid of the discoloration?
What type of treatment helped you. I have this issue now and discoloration. I have a dermatology appt and vein appt.
My grandmother did the same treatments but the discoloration didn't go away the only thing that helped was when I took her to the nail salon and got her special pedicure the soaked her leg and the discolored skin came right off

My foot are getting dark just under my ankle please what's the curse of it, each time I have my bath the dark area turns white on both legs pls I need help🥺
It could just be rough skin that dirt is sticking to better than the rest of your skin. Skin on your knees or any dry areas tends to hold dirt better than the rest of the leg and then look extra clean when its scrubbed off. Often itll be paler too since scrubbing off the dead skin will reveal the new skin underneath which hasnt seen as much sun as the upper skin levels. Obviously get it checked out by a doctor if you can, but don't stress yourself out unnecessarily. Stress can be just as unhealthy as just about anything. Its absolutely terrible for your body chemistry and hormone production etc to be constantly worrying.
I’m here because I have similar problem that saddens my heart everyday
Here's what I did:
1.) Use a tumeric based soap. Mine has tumeric, aloe vera.
2.) Use an exfoliate cloth w/ the soap. Lightly exfoliate.
3.) Moisturize with a collagen lotion.
That will reduce the inflammation and discoloring. You could see results in about a month.
4.) Be sure to drink water or unsweet tea every day! If you're overweight, start there. 5.) Eliminate the sugar and starches from your diet, b/c that causes your body to retain water.
Can u contact me I have some questions
