Circular Sore On Leg, Dry Looking, Redness. What Could It Be?
I have a circular sore that came up on my leg about a month ago. It is a dry looking sore. It is perfectly round, red in color and is dry and scaly in the middle. Its a little smaller than a dime and will not go away. It looks the same everyday with no change. I had a bad bruise in the same area back in july that I can still see and the sore is next to it.
