Suggest Treatment For A Dark Red/purple Spot On The Heel
Hi, I am 31 weeks pregnant and have noticed there is a dark red/purple spot on the bottom of my heel and it is painful while walking/standing on it and pressure is applied. With no pressure there is no pain. I do not remember any trauma to that area and the spot is not raised or swollen. The spot feels warm when touched. I did just recover from a virus a few days ago and that is when I first noticed it. What could this be, should I be worried or go to the hospital since my Drs office is not open until Monday? Please help. Thank you!!
