Was curious if anyone else had these? When I first got sick and was undxed I'd get them on my fingers and toes. Years of low-dose minocycline took care of or repressed them.

Since starting abx after being dxed Lyme in July 2009 I've gotten them on my toes again, starting in December. Has anyone else had these, found anything to help? They aren't too bad, mostly annoying, especially since I'm usually barefoot.

Thanks!

Sometimes it's related to bartonella, but can also be related to a sluggish lymphatic system. Red root tincture, according to Buhner, is supposed to help the lymphatic system.
