    Check to make sure he doesnt

    Check to make sure he doesnt have any swelling in his feet ankles or legs. It could be a DVT (blood clot). I have had 3 while on chemo and went to the ER each time.

    some chemo can cause "hand and foot problem"

     

    google it and see what you find.

    Usually lotion lotion lotion.

     

    but, i agree with check circulation too.
