Freckles On The Arm After A Dental Procedure. Are These Related?

Hi, my name is Marissa. I woke up one morning, after a dental procedure and noticed brown freckle like spots on my arm. I also have a brown spot on the top of my hand from the knuckles to my wrist and it is expanding. I have had these for at least two weeks. Also, the brown spots I have are no bother to me. They don't itch, and no pain. What are these spots and what can i do? Please let me know as soon possible.

Thanks,

Hello there,

I would like to tell you that the brown spots o your hand has no relation with the dental procedure. The spots o your skin can be because of various reasons like allergy, hypersensitivity reactions, or any type of infection. For these spots i would suggest you to take a dermatological opinion.

Take care!
