View allI've noticed these dark brown patches on my feet and ankles for the last few months. They're just therenot itching or spreading, but I'm kind of worried because they havent changed at all. Any idea what might be causing this and what I should do about it?
Dark spots and patches on your feet and ankles could be due to a condition called venous stasis dermatitis, which is caused by blood leaking out of veins and pooling under the skin, leaving behind a residue of hemoglobin that shows up as brown or rust-colored stains. Another possible cause is hemosiderin staining, which is a symptom of chronic venous insufficiency, a condition where veins have trouble sending blood back to the heart. To address this issue, consider elevating your legs when sitting or lying down, wearing compression stockings, and avoiding long periods of standing or sitting. It's essential to consult a doctor or dermatologist to determine the underlying cause and receive proper treatment, which may include lifestyle changes, medication, or laser treatment to fade the discoloration.
