Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello. My upper arms started turning red about a year and a half ago, and now it s spread to my elbows. It doesn t come and go. It stays constant. Although it does get brighter when I m hot. There are no bumps and it doesn t itch. It just looks horrible
If the extreme redness pertain to particular weather changes as cold or else, there can be circulatory disturbances. If not so, then polycythemia, immune related via histamine granules or others can be sort of issues. Needs basic clinical examination, battery of investigations for final diagnosis and guidelines accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
