What Causes Painful Sores On The Legs?

I am 95 years old. Female. I keep getting issues with the skin on my legs. Sometimes sores just happen without me having done anything, and then they take fore er to heal. Also they are very painful, as are my lower legs in general when the sores are there. Making walking very cumbersome. I have gone to a dermatologist but they are very vague..... I still have no diagnosis. Do you have any ideas?
