I recently started taking Lyrica, and I suspect that resulted in my developing two areas on my foot that have become wounds. The skin there is very thin, and was torn by an ankle brace made of streachable "foam" rubber and velcrow fasteners . This is new. Could it be related to starting to take Lyrica. For a short while I was taking 600 mg/day. I am thinking about stopping it because I would rather endure the pain, but have my skin whole again.
