Indentations On Foot, No Redness Or Bleeding. Cause?

I have a couple a small indentations on my bottom (size of a spot) Basically they feel as if a spot was once there. The skin over it feels different but no redness or bleeding which is good. They have never bothered me, just curious. I used to get heat spots a lot when I was younger I thought maybe this has caused the marks

Hi and thanks for the query,
red spots on the body could at times be congenital and have nothing to do with any pathology. It becomes important evaluating them when other symptoms such as pain, swelling, itching or local symptoms like lymph node swelling gets into the scene. However, these are common lesions, and in case of worried, consulting your primary care physician , who orients you to a particular specialist, if need be might be helpful. I suggest you remain calm and not bothered, but consult your primary care physician in case of any abnormal symptoms noticed.
Thanks and best regards,
