Middle age man with itching in feet




Middle age man with itching in feet
A 57 year old man with history of metabolic syndrome presents with itchy rash in his feet. It seemed to have begun a couple of weeks prior. He had been seen in the clinic about 2-3 weeks ago with an acute respiratory illness that we treated with a cephalosporin and inhaled steroids. He is not known to suffer from psoriasis or skin disorders. A photograph is taken of a representative lesion in the left foot. What is your diagnosis?
