Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
85-year old woman has red and blue toes after some soft falls on carpeting. She has had Xrays and has no fractures, but her toes on one foot are rasberry red or one that is blue. Any suggestions. The orthopedic doctor said she should walk and get stronger?????
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if this is injury due to fall then this is nothing to worry because this is not because of the fracture (If the x-ray study suggestive of that ) and this could be due to some bruise only, hope this information helps, take care.
