My arm is discoloured and looks like it is bruised but isn't. I have had it for over 5year and it causes severe pain in my arm. It some times goes to my chest. It looks like something is eating away the tissue. Could you help please?

I'm afraid we can't diagnose and your symptoms are a little unusual, so even a suggestion to take to the doctor is difficult.

Please get yourself to the doctors and let us know what they say.

We may be able to help then.

Best wishes
