I've noticed this dark line running from the top to the bottom of my left leg, and it's really weird because it doesn't hurt or itch at all. It was more pronounced before, but now it seems to be fading. I'm curious if this is something I should be worried about or if it's just going to go away on its own. What could it be? Any idea what's going on?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
