Just asking for ideas..

To start off, I know he needs to go to the doctor. I can’t get him to go though, so I’m just asking for ideas so I can come up with something and hopefully talk him into going.

My husband keeps randomly getting these open sores on the top of his foot. They’re not there today, tomorrow they are.

A little about him and his health: he is very hygienic (showers, washes his hands, brushes his teeth, etc.), he does not do any kind of illegal drugs, he does smoke cigarettes, his diet is questionable (pop and lots of fatty carbs) he does drink plenty of water because he works a very physical job, he’s physically fit. He wears boots every single day, but has since we’ve been together (10+ years).

He’s only been getting these sores the past couple of months. They can range from quarter size to half dollar size. We keep them very clean and covered and they’re usually healed and gone in just a couple days. They never become infected or anything like that.

He has not recently gotten new boots that are rubbing, I have not changed detergent, his socks are the same brand as always.

He does not get a fever or any other side affects when this happens, nor does he do anything to himself. Nothing dropped or banged on his foot. I am totally lost.

Please no negative comments, I know he needs a doctor, and I know this is different. I have asked him and told him to go, but he won’t. Also, he is clean and I do not believe this has anything to do with hygiene, and definitely not drugs.
