A member asked:
My legs keep turning purple and my pediatrician done blood test and he can't seem to figure it out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Purple legs: Purple legs in the absence of other symptoms and normal physical exam may not be anything abnormal. If your pediatrician doesn't find any cause but you have symptoms besides the purple color of the legs, then you should either present those to him or seek second opinion.
