I am not good at these, but they look like infected Gouty Tophi. What's the Serum uric acid level
My favorite Dr. Kalyesubula. I received this client yesterday. I had to R/O syphilis and HIV from lab though I didn't R/O hhv8. Got confused between Kaposi Sarcoma and Mycetoma. I referred him but he through tears requested for some RX. I got an impression of mycetoma.
The views herein are so sage! Thank you Dr. Keith Siau. @drkeithsiau. I would conclude this as Mycetoma. Giving extended doses of Antibiotics like Flucamox and antifungals like Fluconazole (plus excison of the affected tissues) would be an ideal treatment.
What do you reckon?

Just today. A young girl isolated as suspected cholera. Came with profuse diarrhoea & vomiting. Fever of 39⁰C, Jaundice, Bp 95/50mmHg. Creatinine 6mg/dl, Urea of 286mg. K+ 2.4mmol/l. Now anuric. Scheduled 4 Dialysis. Leptospirosis is missed in Africa. Increase index of suspicion
Still a pen-and-paper guy. I had to draft the Pathophysiology of AKI in Leptospirosis. It’s often missed, yet common in the tropics. Always consider it in febrile patients. Leptos-AKI mostly Non-oliguric with Hypokalemia @ISNkidneycare @UgandaPhysician @rkalyes1 @AfricanAFRAN
I love how yo pathophysiology elaborates how vomiting and diarrhoea causes dehydration which in turn causes hypovolaemia and hypotension simultaneously. Hylovolaemia and hypotension collectively causing tubular necrosis that in turn causes reduced blood flow to kidneys thus AKI.
