Been on same meds for years. Freckles are definitely not red - looks like normal freckles. Obviously my legs are on fire and painful but these dont itch - i just noticed them when inspecting how atrophied my legs are getting( aside swelling). Have got superficial phlebitis both legs due to pressure from swelling.
