What is this thing?!
« on: March 22, 2013, 01:20:15 AM »
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 will endure any pain, as long as it has meaning.

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.

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. :)
