Have this evaluated!: Claire: you should have this evaluated as soon as you can. It may be something that can be treated simply or it could be a more serious problem. Answering your question is difficult without a thorough evaluation. Please see your local foot specialists or dermatologist! dr l.

SEE DR ASAP: Dermatology problems are visual problems. It could be something simple, or it could be something more serious. You should see a podiatrist or dermatologist quickly, to make sure it's minor. Sincerely, Dr. Latva
