Black spots on kids legs
Hi doctor,
My son, 5 year old, has developed these black(attached photo) spots since 2 days.
Earlier also he had developed them few times in past 1 year but they were 2 or 3 in total,this time more.
He didn't fall or had got none of physical injury or bruises recently.
Could you please suggest what this could be?
His vit d had come less 3 months back but iron was good and he took d rise since then weekly on doctor's input.
One more thing is since 2 days he started riding bicycle(within our flat) so far was riding tricycle.
Thanks in advance for any pointers.
