You need to get it cleaned and dressed to stop infection.
Hi , I would advise you to see a foot doctor as infection can happen fast. I had a blister on my foot and now its been a month and still only 90% healed. I would not want to have any toes or foot amputated. Be well and love yourself.
@BobbyJoe. Also NEVER GO AROUND THE HOUSE WITHOUT SHOES and wear diabetic socks. Also soak your feet in non-perfumed foot soaker and use epsom salts as they will kill germs in your feet. Dilute 3 parts water to 1 part salts and do not soak more than 10 minutes. If you do not take care of your feet, you may lose them as diabetics and amputations go hand-in-hand. As for pedicures, do not go to a salon unless you know they are completely sanitized and so is their equipment plus the tub must be sterile. I got two major foot infections and have lost two toenails on my left foot because they were severely ingrown and infections were a problem. I use a soaker called Gehwohl (from Germany) and it has epson salts and also has antibiotic crystals inside. I have a sterile foot soaker and only use that for soaking my feet. Do not use perfumed feet cream at all; make sure your feet are completely dry and also wear shoes that are not too tight. The doctor at my wound clinic told me too many of her clients wear their shoes too tight and not the right socks. George's cream is unperfumed, hypoallergenic and keeps my feet moisturized.
There's what happens when you LISTEN to non-professional people and there home remedies!!!
yes please keep it cleaned daily, also check with your physcian and have it looked at , see what he/she recommends.
