A 35-year-old patient of mine with rheumatoid arthritis (treated with methotrexate and steroids) has multiple VPs on both feet PMA and heel areas. In the PMA area there are about 10 on each foot and in the heel they have 'merged' together to form a thick mosaic-like crust. She has had cryotherapy treatment, to which she turned out to be allergic, and various caustic treatments which, she feels, have made them worse. What else would you suggest, considering their number and her suppressed immunity? Leave well alone (they don't cause much discomfort but seem to be spreading). Many thanks.
