I have discoloration in my feet and lower legs ....I take a 40mg diuretic each day. Now my legs are breaking out with a rough orange peel texture that is extremely itchy and they have blisters on them in this mess. I can't leave them alone,,, today they are bleeding and i have blotted a clear liquid that runs down my leg. What is this and how do I fix it ...I am also a type 2 diabetic...does ths have anything to do with it.

thank you for your query
it look like dry skin and infective dermatitis .
you need to consult dermatologist as early as possible
chance of spreading is high as you have diabetes also
you have dry skin ,apply good moisturizer many times a day
for oozing area apply good antibiotic cream
you require antibiotic and anti histaminic medicine .
keep the leg raise when in bed
