Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 38 years old and I have a lesion on my ankle and thereafter some lesions on the wrist and the palm above the wrist. The lesions take two to three weeks to heal and new ones come after that. Now there is no lesion on the wrist and palm. I have lesions only on my ankles now.

Please help. Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read the query and can understand your concern.

I have gone through the photos and details (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). It may be due to fungal infection or eczema. Please consult your doctor or dermatologist for further examination and management.

Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
