Hi, my son is newly diagnosed type 1, and his feet/toes are covered in black lumps underneath. All I can say they look like are verrucas. And blisters too. Is this a common problem and how could I treat it all if possible without trying to get into see a doctor? Thank you for reading

He needs to see a Doctor as it is important for diabetics to take care of their feet.

We cannot diagnose here as we are not qualified.

Your son needs to see a Dr as catherinecherub has said, I would do this sooner rather than later.

I just wondered if it was a common thing as its all new to us as he has not been diagnosed that long ago. Will get an appointment at the doctors. Thanks for replying
