A member asked:
What would make your skin and ears turn black, the dead skin eventually coming off, leaving parts of the ears missing, and raw skin on my arms & leg?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You need urgent help: It's never normal for skin and soft tissue to "break" free/auto-amputate from your ears or to spontaneously develop "raw" areas of skin in the extremities. You need very urgent evaluation and care as you could possibly be developing a life threatening condition! Please seek help now!
