Case Discussion
The patient with distal leg, ankle, and foot dorsal region cellulitis was referred to check for loculated collection/ tenosynovitis/ joint effusion. However, there were none of these.
Skin blister elevates the superficial thin echogenic layer of the epidermis from the deeper, thicker, hypoechoic dermis.
