I was just wondering if any of you have this weird dark-freckle like rash on your lower calves + shins? I have it and saw a show where a really overweight man had the same thing, so I’m assuming it’s attributed to bigger people. Anyone know what it is and how to make it go away?
I think I had the same thing on my wrists and behind my calves. It looks like an area fully-covered in freckles, right? Well, it went away by itself after a couple of months and I had no idea what it was. I’m not particularly big, by the way.
I do not have it, but I have seen it on others. I have always assumed it is due to oxygen deprivation of the surface tissue due to poor circulation. I see it more often on older people, enforcing that belief.
BTW, green_bladder, I believe what RyanV is referring to is not freckles, but a large, dark purplish area of skin on the lower extremities.
