London, Sept 18: A team of researchers at Washington University has revealed that socks with tight elastic bands may result in infants getting lesions on their legs.

Sock-line bands are raised, reddish markings in the region of the ankle or leg, which occur after wearing a tight pair of socks just once.

According to the study, the marks fade but the raised lines remain.

However, the lesions appear to be harmless.

Since the condition has only recently been recognised, it is unclear whether scarring will be permanent.
