Help, i have black circle under skin on heel of foot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Echymotic heel: Depending on related trauma to the heel area, the discoloration could be simply a bruise, or a blood-blister formation if there has been recent excessive ambulation. If there is no history of trauma you need to be evaluated clinically by a foot specialist to determine another cause!
