Hello and thanks you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein and I will try to help you as much as I can with my answer.
You can take it but it would be also good to take some anti-inflammatory painkillers as well such as ibuprofen or diclofenac. Also,antibiotics may be required if there is bacterial infection especially if you are diabetic.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
