Unresolved Brace Bruise - Adjustment

The patient was seen today for an adjustment to his Solid AFOs. The patient has a small red area on the top of the right foot. This area is approximately .5 cm in diameter. It appears to be an irritation from a sock wrinkle. The parent reports that it began as a bruise and has faded to this, but it will not completely resolve. I heated and flared this are. It appeared that the pressure was relieved. The fit was appropriate. The parent will continue to monitor the patient's skin. We will see the patient back as needed for adjustments.
