87 yo male patient, full thickness ulceration as the result | Figure 1

87 yo male patient, full thickness ulceration as the result of #callus remover pad usage after 72 hours of use. Ulceration probed to bone. No OM per radiograph. Luckily, caught in time. Healed right up with aggressive wound care. Patient asked me to please share this image to help others. Physicians and other care providers, PLEASE do not encourage usage of these pads. This is actually the 4th patient with wounds like this d/t these callus remover pads I've seen in the last several mo. This is also probably the least severe of the 4 patients. Refer to Podiatrist for callus/hammer toe care.
