Brief Answer:
Nevi
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I am Dr. Kakkar (Dermatologist and Venereologist).I have noted your concern and I have viewed the image.
The spots seems like they are melanocytic nevi. Just like moles elsewhere. Not a result of trauma or something else. They are pretty normal and benign.

Hi dr kakkar many thanks for your reply.
Just had a follow ip question please i have googled the term you have described. From the images it looks like a mole type.
Mine you can compare it to a mark like a haldi stain it doesnt look like a mole or similar to a mehndi stain. Have you ever seen anything like that?
What can i do to reduce the apperance? Can it be cancerous ir suggest any coagulation problems? From your expert knowledge what would the difference be?

And also there is a lighter mark on the other foot aswell just a slight worried.also Dr Kakkar to keep you aware i did a lot of binge drinking over this weekend.
can this be the cause? i do binge drinking at least once or twice a month but make up for the time i havent drank. can it be to do with the low iron levels?

Brief Answer:
Acquired melanocytic nevi
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
They are acquired melanocytic nevi (AMNs). Nevi can be of various shades of brown-tan to dark brown. They are completely benign. No risk of being cancerous or melanoma. AMNs can fade away themselves with time.
