Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone carefully through your concern.
From the picture you attached it seems to be cellulitis, a skin infection caused by streptococcus or staphylococcus that occurs often in persons with compromised immunity such as patient with Diabetes.
You should seek medical help because it needs treatment with antibiotics and prompt treatment is crucial because of potentially rapid progression. If you have fever and chills i would recommend to go to emergency.
Aside from administration of antibiotics, patient care includes the following:
-Symptomatic treatment of aches and fever (if you have)
-Hydration (oral intake if possible)
-Cold compresses
-Elevation and rest of the affected limb: Recommended to reduce local swelling, inflammation, and pain
-Saline wet dressings: Should be applied to ulcerated lesions and changed every 12 hours.
The blood glucose should be in normal ranges in order to heal soon.
Hope i was helpful.
