Skin discolouration is a known side effect.

But usually only after long term use and sun exposure. I would go and see your doctor as this is very early and may take a long time to go

Fortunate that it is on your legs. A friend had it on one side of his face and neck. It looked like a massive birth mark. He had a pacemaker fitted earlier but at that time around 1995 they said that he had to stay on it for life. The first and only time in his life that he did not follow doctors orders.

Stopping seemed to do no harm as he lived for another 20 years until he was 82.
