30 years non diabetic male presented with feet deformities, trophic ulcer and osteomyelitis of the right foot gradually increasing since 3 years. He consulted many doctors but was not diagnosed for 3 years. Health system delay for diagnosis could've been avoided. What a price to pay for a delayed diagnosis! What is your diagnosis? Awareness and knowledge will minimise health system delay. Thank you.
