Specializes in General Practice

Exam: Your leg sores could have many causes including insect bites, trauma, infection, tumors, malnutrition, or chronic medical conditions. You really need a medical exam for proper evaluation and treatment for this condition. Please ask around about a free medical clinic in your area. I wish you the best with your health!
