Answer 1

Ok, if you have any "swelling" of the feet and legs, it could be "vein" activity...

When your feet or legs swell with water, the skin "stretches" and it tries to make new veins to "feed" it, and keep it alive...

So, when the legs and feet (top) return to "normal", they leave brown or red splotches on them (as the veins shrink too), and when tanned, will look "real dark", almost black!

It doesnt itch, burn or anything, but is not a nice thing to look at.

(This is if your a heart patient or suffer from edema (swelling).

I wish you well...
