Suggest Treatment For Brown Patches On The Shins
Brown splotches on both shins and the outer portion of both feet (just above the small toe). What might be causing this? There is no pain, no swelling, and no tenderness. Actually, my feet do swell a bit and I think it is because I sit most of the day, but why the brownish splotches?

Hello,
It may be due to cornification or fungal infection or dryness etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use moisturizer cream locally, use candid cream may useful.
If symptoms not improved please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
