I'm sorry but that leg has to come off.
But seriously, perhaps Bowen's Disease.
Bowel’s disease is an infection that is characterized by abnormal growth of cells on the epidermis layer of the skin. It was named after the specialist who first discovered it in 1912. Because this infection can progress into cancer, some professionals refer to it as pre-cancer. Others consider Bowen’s disease to be a type of carcinoma in situ. Based on statistics, 3 in every 100 patches of the infection develop into full blown skin cancer, also known as squamous cell carcinoma.
Symptoms of Bowen's Disease
Other than what you can see on Bowen’s disease pictures, the disease is characterized by the following symptoms:
A single or several patches on the skin and may persist for months
The patches are red, slightly raised and flat with a diameter of 1 to 3cm
The patches have irregular edges, but are different from the surrounding skin
The patches grow at a slow pace
The patches may become irritated or sore
The patches are normally crusty and rough and may start bleeding if scraped. As the patches grow, they may start to hurt or itch. They may as well advance into chronic sores on the skin or scars. In most cases, the infection affects the part of the skin that is exposed to sunlight, such as the lower legs, head and hands.

Derm PA here:
Where exactly on your leg is this? Closer to your ankle? Do you have a history of edema or swelling? Before you diagnosis it as a skin cancer, other diagnoses could be schambergs purpura, dermatofibroma, Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Depending on close up examination, may need a biopsy, but may not. See your local Derm provider. Where do you live?

Not trying to be a smartass, but it’s pretty clear to me where on his leg it is.

Above your boot inside of leg? It is due to poor circulation, I have some areas like that. Mine is part of post DVT trauma.

I’m no A&P expert, but I’m pretty sure I see his calf.

Does it itch? Could be psoriasis or eczema.
Posted on 6/2/22 at 10:45 am to High C
Understood. It may be clear to you, but it’s not to me, and location can play an important part in diagnosis.

Nice dingo boots.
