How Can An Infected Sore On The Foot Be Treated?

I have had this terrible soar on my foot that was infected and went on antibiotics for 10 days and it s been almost a month and it still not gone away. I am just worried it s something else and maybe I have to go show it again to a dr. I went to Urgent care and that s who gave me the antibiotic and said it was infected. It hurt terribly but not hurting as much now. Just looks bad.
