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.
What Causes Small And Painful Red Area On The Right Shin?
My husband has a small red area located on his right shin, It is about the size of a half dollar and has raised white dots. It does have a stabbing pain when he walks after about 10-15 minutes but it goes away. He had a staff infection about 8 years ago in that general area but has recently lost around 30 lbs. What could this be? Sorry thought this was free. We don t have a credit card
