What causes red rash and burning sensation on the insteps of feet?
Patient: I have a slight red rash on the instep of both feet that cause some tingling and numbness. I am not a diabetic and don t believe to have circulation problems. no itching associated with the rash but I do have a slight burning sensation on my in-steps. Do you have an idea what 5this could be ? Doctor: Hi,  It may be vasculitis. There may be inflammation in the vessel wall of feet.  Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. Antimetabolite like azathioprine might improve the condition. Keep the feet elevated. Warm water soak may benefit.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.   Regards, Dr. Ilyas Patel,  Dermatologist
