penzman Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 I've noticed many times Thais with beautiful skin but having purplish spots on their legs. What are those? Mosquito/insect bites? Seems to be more frequent with women than men. Just curious. Penz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penzman Posted September 12, 2004 Author Share Posted September 12, 2004 Did a google image search on "purpura" http://images.google.co.th/images?q=purpur...F-8&sa=N&tab=wi What I've noticed here doesn't seem to be purpura which is darn ugly. It looks like pock marks (size of a satang) or old scars from over scatching mosquito bites. My wife doesn't have them but I think she mentioned something about blood type and mosquito bites.

wulfman Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Maybe marks where leeches have attached when wading in water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon43 Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 They are actually scars from bite-marks caused by over-enthusiastic Farangs as they 'slurped' their way up the poor girl's legs Simon - (practising doctor but not quite got it right yet...)

Not here in Chonburi and especiallty not with the striking beauties I've seen them on, they surely don't walk around in rice paddies all day... Who will come up with the explanation ?
