Brown Patches in legs with lumps
Around 4-5 months back my mother started to have patches of brown colour with lumps in her legs upon getting a blood test ( in September) her glucose fasting was- 85 mg/dl , hba1c- 5.5% , estimated average glucose - 111mg/dl which were normal, but her vitamin b 12 - 78 pg/ml ( ref range- 180-914), vit D- 42.96 ( ref range- 75-250)
Can these brown patches be due to vitamin deficiency?
Or is it diabetes and some other diabetic tests have to done?

These patches may be due to some other pathology, for which I would like to see and feel the patches and it might then need a biopsy too for the confirmation of the condition.
And generalised dryness and itching could be due to Vitamin B12 deficiency.
Next Steps
You should visit a dermatologist for further opinion
