Dr. Hanif warmly welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can well realize your health worries. Being your physician, I want to assure, I will take care all of your medical concerns.


It would have been very great to help assist you in a better way if you added some pictures of the foot. Anyway, take Ibuprofen and Claritin by mouth. Apply Capsaicin cream, Plus Eucerin Eczema relief ointment on the affected foot.

Keep the foot dipped in warm saline water for 15-20 min and do it 3 times a day. It will soothe you a lot.

Hope I answered all of your questions. In future, if you need further, detailed and quick assistance on any health issue, feel free to ask me a question by writing my name as a reference in the start of your question. I will get back to you right away. Have a wonderful time ahead.


Regards!
