What makes dark freckles appear randomly on the body? i've recently noticed freckles on my arms and back that hadn't been there before.

Hard to say...: There are a variety of things that can cause freckles/pigmentation to appear on the skin such as certain medications, sun exposure, genetic predisposition, etc. I would highly recommend visiting with a Board Certified Dermatologist in order to determine what's causing your freckles to appear and what you can do about treating them.
