Skin problems on heel region
Circular skin lesions with only the skin peeling off at the sides of heel region. Only on one foot. No other abnormalities including odour. Noticed since last week, no itching/ reddening/ inflammation. However, I often notice odour after wearing freshly washed socks for even for 1-2 hours. No systemic signs. May I know what possible condition it is and can I just get off the counter medication instead of going to a clinic?
