Hi doctor,My nephew, who is 5.6 years old, has got a skin infection in the right midfoot. My sister noticed it a week ago. She thought it as some infection due to sweat in summer. Now, it has been the same which is in the attached photo. Until now there is no itching or burning or any irritation or pain. There is no swelling in that leg. There is no discharge, and the skin is not peeling over there. It looks shiny and somewhat scaly in dark pink color. It is not puffy, and there is no pitting on pressure. He is not aware of it unless we ask him about the skin change. Please explain what it is and advice the treatment. Thank you.
Hi. I have read your concern and examined your picture (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Revert after five days to a dermatologist online -->
