A member asked:
I have a dark ring on my leg right above the ankle . what causes that condition?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lord of the Ring...: Well if it's not due to either a recent tattoo or in need of a good scrub, then I'm afraid you will have to have it evaluated. A history of the condition as well as looking into pigmentation, environmental or systemic possibilities need to be explored.
