Haemosiderin staining

"Haemosiderin staining" describes orange/red/brown skin hyperpigmentation caused by haemosiderin (an iron-containing pigment found in blood) leaking into the skin.

Causes:

Chronic venous insufficiency (in lower legs)

Skin inflammation

Trauma e.g. wound, fracture, surgery

Pigmented purpuric dermatoses

Haemochromatosis

Haemosiderin staining may be exacerbated by anticoagulant use as this increases extravasation (leakage) of red blood cells into the skin.

See an example here.

There are some modern treatments for leg vein problems, which are denoted below for readers. 

Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA)

When podiatrists want to perform varicose vein treatment, they often use Endovenous laser ablation. They will place a tiny laser fiber into your affected vein. The heat will seal the vein. While there is no need for anesthesia, EVLA is an effective and safe treatment.
