What causes ring like formation on the ankle?
Patient: Hello, My name is Sam. My friends baby has bright red rings around her ankle. We thought they were from her socks but we have removed them and there still there so I felt them. They are bumped out and really hurting her I was wondering what they are. (Her socks have been off for 6hrs) Doctor: Hello,  It could be due to minor contusion. Apply ice packs for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedician and get evaluated.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
