Scar in Leg

2018-02-13 15:18:27
Greetings doctor, I've had this patch of skin which appears dry and flaky and started off looking  more like a scar but I hadn't injured myself there. I tended to peal off the upper layer of the wound and this would expose some red colour area. But the area of this thing is increasing each time and it hadn't gone away at all.

Is this the only patch of skin abnormality on the body. Are there any other similar lesions on the body. Since when is this present. What are the complaints over this. Without proper information about the problem on diagnosis cannot be reached. Please get it properly assessed by meeting a qualified dermatologist directly on you can consult online by sending pictures. Hope this is helpful.
