Sorry to hear this. In general, small vessel vasculitides are treated medically with steroids, and not with surgery. However, once the flare has come down, he can get imaging like a CT or MRI to look for any blockages in any of the larger arteries to the feet. He can also try nitroglycerin paste to increase blood flow through the small vessels in the feet.
