Suggest Treatment For Hardening Of Skin On Legs

I have a skin condition on both legs...it s a hardening of the skin and starts at the ankles and goes up my leg about 7-8 inches. My Orthopedist said, flat out, that he didn t know what it was, and my primary care doctor said she thinks it s varicose veins. Any suggestions on what it is and how to get rid of it?
