Good morning. Diabetic dermatology
My dad is a diabetic for about 30 years. We are in chennai and he suddenly had itching and drying towards his ankle region and he is tempted to rub it quite often. I was worried of any cellulitis or any other issue and went for a Doppler Lower limbs and it was normal. May I know why it is becoming dry and itching and after frequent rubbing the ankle got slightly swollen too
