WOW! I am so sorry for your mom and so grateful you saw my post and posted. It's interesting to read that the doctor/s you and she see are saying they see it all the time. I can get NO ONE to acknowledge it. My PCP contradicted the podiatrist and derm. who said NOT to use cortisone dailly. I have to understand why. If I don't,the bottoms of my heels blister and crack and are even more painful.

Maybe we all should take photos and send to the Surgeon General!

Thank you, @jennyrice for posting.

That's really not a bad idea, I think more doctors need to be aware. They say EM is rare, like 1 out of 100,000 people, but I think it's MUCH more common now after COVID and some people have it after getting the COVID vaccine as well, it's actually listed as a known side effect of the Moderna vaccine in particular. They need to update their stats and seek funding for researching treatments. It's rediculous that doctors know so little about it. I get shrugs and blank stares.
