What causes red blotches around ankles?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
See a dermatologist: Ankle rashes can be caused by a wide variety of diseases, disorders and conditions, such as infection, inflammation, allergic reaction, parasite and insect bites, and autoimmune processes.It is difficult to make a proper diagnosis since I am not there to see the condition. I recommend seeing a dermatologist so that they can make a proper diagnosis and give you something to get rid of the condition.

Many possibilities: Red blotches can come from swelling, bug bites, eczema, drug reaction, or related to underlying illness. You need to be evaluated to determine the cause.
