I have sudden dark brown sports on my skin that appear close to my wrist but down farther about 2 1/2 on my arm . One s on the side and one s underneath. I was wondering what they could be? I noticed them af ew days ago and they don t look like freckles and they re not moles I don t think because they don t look like moles.
