Brief Answer:
Please, send an image for review!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these spots. I understand they can be a sure of discomfort because of the look which might not settle well with you.

I have reviewed your information fully. The spots you reported were most likely minor bless under the skin. This blood would change color to become blue.brown/dark, etc. The good news here is that the body cells would gradually suck up the blood and these spots would clear up. However, this would take a few weeks and you would need to exercise patience. There is no need in seeking any aggressive medical interventions at this time because it would not necessarily accelerate the resorption process which is more natural.

To make sure there is nothing am missing out on, I will like to review an image of these spots. To upload an image, simply click on the link to upload a file and follow the instructions. If this proves difficult, please send the image by mail to YYYY@YYYY and request that the image should be uploaded to your query.

I hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience. Remember am always here to address any worries and further question that you have. Thanks for using our services and until then, I wish you well.

I suspect you had put on poorly adapted footwear.

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the image.

I have reviewed both images. It is typical of blood under the skin. its location mass me think you put on poorly adapted shoes. Please, check the shoes you wore on the day these marks appeared and make sure they are comfortable enough for you. If you have any worries about them, I will suggest you think twice before putting them on.

For now, patience is all that is required.

I wish you well.
