Chronic painful ulcer. Get the vessels of his legs evaluated. Most likely he could be having peripheral vascular disease. Narrowing of the vessels reduces blood supply to the extremities. Atherosclerosis, chronic smoking are the common reasons. Hope his blood sugars are normal. Get him evaluated accordingly. Treatment differs according to the cause.
