Suggest Treatment For Itchy Ankles Along With Skin Discoloration
Hello, I understand your situation and would explain that these skin changes are related to the chronic venous insufficiency. They could get worse if you do not hold compression stocks and avoid prolonged standing up position. Physical activity can help. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
