Usually, diabetics suffer of skin problems (infections) as the water bump your mom has on her toe. Such infections are difficult to treat and slowly healing due to persistent high blood sugar levels.
I hope the bump has not left dried gangrene as in this case the only treatment remains surgery (remove the toe). Please be in close contact with her caring doctor to control blood sugar levels and evaluate the progress of her water bump.
Wish fast recovery! Dr.Albana
