Why are my patient's legs turning black?

I’m a opiate addiction counselor and I have a pt with multiple health issues but one of them really scared me his legs are turning black, he is been dx with cellulitis and he has a back problem, couple of herniated discs, what could be the cause for his legs to be like that?

Answer #1

Dear virginia, It seems rather obvious that he isn’t get circulation to his legs…did you not take this in your health classes? Anyway, he must see a doctor ASAP…I hope you’ve done that before you’ve asked this question. Sue…good luck

Answer #2

poor blood circulation
