What Causes A Red Line Around The Foot?
my husband -78 yrs old-has a callus on the bottom of left foot below pinkie toe. He took his sock off and now there is a red line on the top of his foot starting below the pinkie toe and goes about 3 inches on the top of his foot towards the middle.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Red line around the foot may be due to compression followed by pressure induce rash or allergic reaction to soap or medications etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. If you're feeling any itching or erythema please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
