Re: Help Identify My Mothers Skin Issue

Looks like she has venous stasis which creates a lot of redness and swelling. Steroids will do nothing nor will vinegar. It looks like she needs a round of antibiotics bc this could be or turn into cellulitis. Then I’d suggest compression stockings to help the fluid go back up to the heart - love your NP friend :)

Re: Help Identify My Mothers Skin Issue

Please get her to a new doctor that will actually do their job. My mom had a lazy doctor too and it's only going to hurt your mother in the long/short run.
