I went to him(December 2011) for an inflamed reddish/purple small toe that had spread to the other toes. I didn’t stub or injure them and didn’t know the root cause before going. I suspected athletes’ foot might have been the cause, and administered various anti-fungal creams/sprays. The condition also only occurs in the winter not in the summer. He checked them, ruled out gout(later confirmed by low uric acid levels), and arthritis, and then cut my toe nails and diagnosed me with an ingrown toe nail. I didn’t get the removal procedure done and the condition has gone away(as of June) in all of the toes by keeping the toes nails trimmed/clean. He is looking for money and I don’t recommend him.
