What is this thing?!

[bertybotts]

For a few months, I've noticed a little tiny patch (not even 1 cm large) of skin on my thigh that looks a little red or discolored. It is not a scar, mole, birthmark, or anything. It's just a bit darker than my skin color. When I'm really cold, it can turn purple-y shades.
No itching, pain or scaling. It's just skin, discolored. Not a stretch mark either.

What is this? Should I be concerned?

I took a picture. If you click the pic, it makes it bigger.

anyone?

I'll bite.  I have discolorations all over my body ..... here and there.  If it's not painful, itching - showing other symptoms, it could be normal and nothing to worry about.

If this was deadly I would be dead by now:)  the only people who dont have anything like this are the photoshopped ppl in magazines:)

No worries...it is a normal skin discoloration.  I have these kind of things everywhere!!

Thanks guys!
Made me feel much better.

I never knew of these things. Maybe it's a thing you get with age. Im only 21 - but 21 is a lot older than being a small child with very fresh baby skin. :)
