small punctate red macules on a shin, no itching, burning, drainage, no known etiology
We are calling in Infectious Disease (not sure why), Allergist, Dermatologist, Cardiologist, not sure who else; This was discovered a couple of days ago during a bath. Patient was not aware she had them and denies any problems with them, we are all curious as to what they are.
Have you ever had a patient with something like this?
History includes DM, HTN, s/p CVA; some evidence of poor circulation in legs, that is, longstanding brown deposits in skin.
Thanks.

But, since they are already spending the money (all be it unnecessarily), could you let us know what they conclude?
