Dr. Thomas Inwood answered

Specializes in Podiatry

Spots: The first right thing to do is see your podiatrist as it could be broken vessels with blood leaking into the surrounding tissue or it could be a fungal infection. It is impossible to say without seeing the foot , which is exactly why you need to see your podiatrist .
