I have a spot on my toe that is circular in shape. It looks like a burn with dark red around it. It is not open and does not hurt. About the size of a dime. I'm diabetic but have never had foot problems.

Thank you for contacting IPFH. We do not diagnose or recommend treatments on line. Despite the fact that you have had no prior foot problems, it is very important that you consult a medical professional at your earliest opportunity. Foot conditions in people with diabetes should always be treated with care and caution. We urge you to contact your primary care physician or a foot health professional as quickly as possible, so that you can receive a proper diagnosis and any treatments the physician might deem necessary. We hope you will do this soon, and that you will quickly be healed.
