Subject: s/l mark-type pigmentation?

On the physical exam in the category of extremities, the doctor says "The patient has bilateral chronic stasis changes in the lower extremities.  There is associated [s/l mark-type profigmentation] with no edema, erythema or warmth"


I'm assuming the "profigmentation" is maybe pigmentation that he just stumbled on but I'm not positive on that.  The patient was being seen for bilateral lower extremity recurrent cellulitis.


Any ideas?

Using a question mark to indicate doubt or uncertainty sm
BOS says:
Use an ending question mark to indicate doubt or uncertainty.

Sometimes, particularly with diagnoses, a question mark is placed before a
statement in order to indicate uncertainty.

Placement either before or after the questionable material is acceptable, but
do not place the question mark both before and after.

Ex:

His cholesterol levels were high normal (or minimally elevated?).

D: Diagnosis: Angina question mark
T: Diagnosis: Angina?
or Diagnosis: ?Angina.
not Diagnosis: ?Angina?

Note: There is no space after the question mark in ?Angina.
