On And Off Sores On Legs. No Help From Any Dermatologists. History Of Wound In Leg. Suggest

Husband has sores on legs, more like reoccurring sores that has been going on for three-four years. He's been to dermachologist with no relief... At one time had a wound on leg which was helped by doctor William Sternfield in town and would like him to go see him again...can't find his name under "wounds," in the phone book. Can you help us with a phone number?

Hi, it appears that the doctor might be a surgeon, and he would have shifted from the place, the sores appears to be with resistant bacteria. The discharge is to be tested for culture and sensitivity for diagnosis. So i advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
