A member asked:

7 weeks after a sprained ankle, the skin on my foot turns bright red after showering (no swelling/inflammation, not painful). what causes this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See below: The heat from the water causes the blood vessels to expand and this will create increased blood flow and a red look to the skin
