The skin of the feet of many people becomes so delicate that as soon as the finger is kept, it starts to sink inwards like a foam. If this is happening to you too, then you should consult a doctor immediately. Let us tell you on the basis of interaction with doctors that it is a symptom of such dangerous disease and why it should not be ignored?
Why does the skin like foam become?
Dr. Ramesh Sharma, a skin expert at Max Super Specialty Hospital, Saket, New Delhi, said that the skin of the foot is an unusual symptom like a foam, in which the skin loses its elasticity and becomes a pit on pressing. This pit lasts for some time. This condition is usually called edema or lymphedema, but it also provides signals of other serious diseases like heart disease, kidney disease or skin related problems. Along with this, symptoms like swelling, heaviness or pain in the feet can also be seen. If these symptoms appear again and again, the doctor should be contacted immediately.
The signal of these diseases is the sinking of the skin
Edima (edema): Edema occurs when extra fluid accumulates in the body’s tissue, which causes swelling. It forms a pit on pressing inflammation, which is called pitting edema. Its connection is with heart, kidney or liver problems. According to Dr. Ramesh Sharma, Pitting Edema reveals heart failure, chronic kidney disease or liver cirrhosis. If the pit remains for 2-3 seconds on pressing the skin of the foot, then it is a serious sign. The patient should immediately conduct blood tests and imaging studies.
Lymphedema: The lymphedma occurs when the lymphatic system does not function properly. This makes the lymph fluid accumulate in the legs. This condition can occur due to cancer treatment, surgery or congenital reasons. The skin may be thick and sunk in the lymphma. Skin may look like foam in the lymphma, as the lymph accumulates under the fluid skin. It is usually more in one leg. If there is no timely treatment, it can cause permanent damage.
Deep Vein Thrombosis – DVT): DVT is a serious condition, in which a blood clot is formed in the deep veins of the feet. Symptoms may include inflammation, pain and skin collapse. If the clot reaches the lungs, it can be fatal. This condition is common among those who sit for a long time. Such people may immediately need ultrasound and blood thinner.
skin problems: Some skin disease like psoriasis or athletes foot can be thick, dry and foam. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that increases the turnover of skin cells, causing flaky and sunk skin on the feet.
nutritional deficiencies: Vitamin B12, folate or iron deficiency can also affect the structure of skin and tissue. This deficiency can make the skin weak and sunken.
