How Can severe Red Spots On The Legs Be Treated?

I have red spots primarily on legs but recently spreading over body accompanied by swollen area on leg. Spots have been here for two weeks. Thought I had hypertension of knee but pain has moved down to ankle accompanied by swelling. Have two separate areas where have bumped into things and are very swollen for minor bumps.

Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

I would explain that your symptoms could be related to an allergic reaction or a skin disorder.

For this reason, I recommend consulting with a dermatologist for a physical exam and some blood lab tests (complete blood count, kidney and liver function tests, allergy tests).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
