Sounds like libido reticularis. Of no consequence but discuss with your Drs. And take some good pictures.

This.mottling called livideo reticularis, is felt to be due to spasm of blood vessels or disturbance of blood circulation near the skin surface. Exposure to cold is one trigger. The condition tends to resolve if there is no skin damage, vascular disease or known connective tissue disorder. If you have concerns, consult a vascular specialist.
