What Does Splotches On The Arm Indicate?
Question: Hello I am JH I have had issues with my skin on my left arm...what begins as a splotch seems to spread out under my skin... My mother said it looked like age spots... I am 50 she is 75.. no pain , no poison ivy , no itch but if I press down on the discolored (red ? blood ) it disseminates and goes away.
its like my skin is paper thin and looks like the age spots on my 80 yr old father. no itching or sensitivity on the area. I work with my hands ...not unusual to get scrapes cuts etc... but this is weird ?
thank you for any correspondence ...

Hi and thanks so much for this query.
It would be very important to see this area for first hand evaluation and insights from me. Though you have done a great job describing, seeing is the most valuable aspect to make a good evaluation for a personalized and helpful response to you. Without an image, guesses might steer us towards a generic and unhelpful response. For this reason, I kindly request that you upload an image for review.

I do promise to get back to you with more insights and helpful recommendations as soon as the requested information gets here.
