Brief Answer:
Hirudoid cream application

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Since you have brown sopts on your legs you can apply hirudoid cream over the area.

Hirudoid cream contain heparinoid, which is a similar to heparin. It is used to improve circulation after bruising or soft tissue injuries.

Heparinoid works by dissolving small blood clots and improving the blood supply to the skin.

Gently massage about 5 to 15 cm of cream to the affected area.

If the area is tender to touch, the cream be applied around the area, rather than directly on to the area. This can be repeated up to four times a day.
