...a water bubble that open? He has diabetes and is taking insulin to control it. Some times his blood sugars are high but most of the time it is in the normal range. It started out as a small water bubble when it broke open about the size of 1/2" to 2", now it is about 3" long and 2" wide plus his ankle is swollen and just below the wound it is all red. He has pain when touching the wound but not around it. What should I do for him take him to a different doctor or just let the treatment run its course. Someone please help....THANKS IN ADVANCE.
Treatment now: cleaning wound with sterile water and betadine and applying a white cream ( I don't know what it is) then wrapping it with gauze and an ace bandage. Also, applying ice when possible and keeping leg raised.
