I have a 81 year old male patient in regional Queensland, Australia who I see for general nail care every 2-3/12. At the first consultation several years ago he described an issue that he has suffered from for the past 7 years ago -
The plantar aspect of the feet become painful and blotchy and red dots come out and these dots then bleed and feet remain painful for several weeks and months. There is no pattern to when the issues occur - hot or cold weather. He has travelled and lived and worked in Africa as a missionary and has had GIT health issues at times. He has seen many doctors and specialist has had biopsies done of the red spots and blood test all have come back with nothing. He has taken oral steriods when the pain is bad but this does not really help.
Things have been good for several years since he was advised to take magnesium but had a flare up last week possibly from changing magnesium supplements. The following are pictures of the feet and specific areas of redness. Any thoughts?
