Abstract

Calcinosis cutis is a common ailment of the skin, caused by the accumulation of calcium salts in the subcutaneous regions, though there are rare case reports from rural Maharashtra region. This condition is usually asymptomatic and might manifest as a single growth or several different-sized growths. Its clinical presentation is observed as nodules or plaques without causing injury to underlying tissues. The condition is reported to be a secondary presentation to trauma, malignancies, and connective tissue diseases and has multifactorial underlying etiologies. Recommendation for treatments including both medical and surgical procedures is contingent upon the manifestation and severity of the condition. The final decision can be based on the results obtained from diagnostic modalities like fine needle aspiration and radiological imaging. This is the case of a 35-year-old male with a swelling on his left foot for the past two years without any associated medical history. The patient was managed by surgical incision and had a good recovery.
