Patient's question:
Due to congenital spina bifida, I had surgery in my childhood. The aftereffect is clubfoot. In 2016, I had a corrective surgery. At the end of 2018, water got into my shoes due to rain, causing a blood blister on my big toe. It then developed into an open wound that kept healing and then flaking off repeatedly.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is repeated irritation caused by connective tissue hyperplasia, combined with poor hygiene, leading to wound infection.Hello, first, I recommend using povidone-iodine for local disinfection and avoiding water contamination to prevent local infection. Wear breathable cotton socks and cotton shoes in winter. In summer, it's also essential to maintain partial dryness, hygiene, and cleanliness. Soak with warm water every night to remove dead skin and disinfect. Pay attention to observation and drink plenty of water.
