I found two brown marks on my thighs

Question

Asked for Female, 16 Years

I found on the back of my upper thigh a brown mark with uneven coloring and border that'sthe size of a pencil eraser. It isn't raised but it has two hairs growing off it. The others on the back of the other thigh and higher up. It's an even dark brown circle that's smaller. I noticed them both today but I'm not sure exactly how long they've been there. I also have known that I've had two pink bumpy patches of skin on the bottom of my butt but I had thought it was eczema which I get in the winter
